These purple flowers are Osteospermum or African daisies.
Osteospermum are pretty popular in our neighborhood. Its blooms are so attractive. I guess I like it because Osteospermum are simple flowers that are daisy-like in appearance.
I recall that when I was little,
The flowers go from soft lavender to very purple. It has a deep bluish center with yellows. Very pretty, indeed! Next to pink, the color purple is my favorite. It is regal!
Why is Purple Considered the Color of Royalty?
The reason for purple’s regal reputation comes down to a simple case of supply and demand. For centuries, the purple dye trade was centered in the ancient Phoenician city of Tyre in modern day Lebanon. The Phoenicians’ “Tyrian purple” came from a species of sea snail now known as Bolinus brandaris, and it was so exceedingly rare that it became worth its weight in gold. To harvest it, dye-makers had to crack open the snail’s shell, extract a purple-producing mucus and expose it to sunlight for a precise amount of time. It took as many as 250,000 mollusks to yield just one ounce of usable dye, but the result was a vibrant and long-lasting shade of purple.
