What is True name of this flower ?

Can someone tell me the correct name of this flower I love it and want one but I live in Texas. Someone sent me the picture and said it was from the Botanical Gardens in Canada.

And just to clarify - there's more than one botanical garden in Canada.

 

Its an Osteospermum. I think its a variety called 'Whirligig'.

 

Thank you !
Now I am having a hard time finding someone that sells them or the seeds. I live in Texas and can't find anyone that ships here. If someone know let me know or you can email me directly nelda1210@sbcglobal.net

 

Joker :-) Of course there is

 

Oh My

I grow them every summer as an annual

Love them

They are called spoon-- something. The name leaves me

The spoon name comes from the shape of the petals as a spoon
They should be a perennial in Texas

The name is Osteospermum Whirligig is the name but can someone tell me where I can order one of these plants ? I live in Texas so I can not buy one locally.....You can email me at nelda1210@sbcglobal.net.If you have a website that ships to Texas please forward a site to me.


Thanks in advance,
Nelda

 

Osteospermum hates a typical Hot Humid Texas
Summer so it's a Winter or Spring plant for us.
