Kiss™ Rose Gazania

Kiss™ Rose is a compact Gazania rigens with rose-pink flowers and bright yellow centers. Syngenta lists the selection at 8–10 inches tall and wide, with a mounding habit and flowering from mid-spring through summer. It brings a saturated color accent to sunny beds and containers while keeping a neat, low profile. ## Garden Use Use Kiss Rose along a sunny border, in a rock garden, or as a focal color in a mixed planter. Its short, sturdy stems hold multiple blooms above green foliage, and the flowers open in bright sunlight. The compact size works well near paths where the pink petals and yellow centers can be appreciated close up. ## Growing Conditions Provide full sun and freely draining soil. Syngenta identifies the Kiss series as heat and drought tolerant, and its product profile recommends container sizes from packs through larger pots. Let the soil dry slightly between waterings, then increase irrigation during extended summer heat or while plants are establishing. Gazania is commonly grown as a warm-season annual in cooler climates. ## Maintenance Remove spent blooms as needed to keep the plant tidy and support continued flowering. Avoid water collecting in containers; good drainage helps protect the roots.
