Turn up the sunshine with Ursinia anthemoides ‘Solar Fire’, a bright and cheerful South African annual that brings molten orange color to sunny gardens. Daisy-like blooms glow in vivid orange with dark centers, shimmering beautifully in the light and adding warmth to borders, containers, rock gardens, and pollinator plantings.

Also known as Solar Fire Ursinia, this easy annual grows about 12–18" tall and creates a lively display over a long bloom season. The vivid orange flowers are especially striking with blue, purple, silver, and white companions, making them fabulous with salvias, bachelor buttons, lavender, grasses, and other drought tolerant annuals. Plant in generous drifts for a glowing ribbon of color, or tuck into containers for instant cheer.

Plant Ursinia anthemoides ‘Solar Fire’ in full sun with well-drained soil. Once established, it appreciates a sunny, lean, Mediterranean-style setting and rewards you with long-lasting flowers full of warmth and movement. Explore more climate-adapted treasures in our South African Plants collection.
