This has done really well Cinders and has been propagated many times. I have another one called Osteospermum jucundum which is totaly hardy and forms large clumps. It came from my old house with me and must be 15 years old now.
Thank you Yorks :-))

Dotty the one I've mentioned above, Osteospermum jucundum is as tough as old boots, a very good perennial. Mine even threw up some flowers in the snow this year :-)))
