The capitulum consists of two types of florets: the ‘ray florets’ at the margins and the ‘disc florets’ in the centre. The ray florets are generally golden yellow, often with a dark base, but are occasionally white with a yellow band near the base. The disc florets are yellow to reddish-orange.Gazania linearis is divided into two varieties: G. linearis var. linearis and G. linearis var. ovalis.

Both varieties are from the same region of South Africa.Aster Flower Seeds:Description:Asters are daisy-like perennials with starry-shaped flower heads.
