Are you growing gazania in Alaska, but don’t know when they’ll bloom?
Getting your Gazania to bloom is not as easy as it seems.

When Do Gazania Bloom in Alaska?
As you may have already guessed, there are two main factors that determine when Gazania will bloom: where your Gazania are planted & weather (time).
Bloom Time Depends on Where Your Gazania Are Planted!!!
When your Gazania will bloom will depend on exactly where it is planted in your yard or garden
In general, expect the following:
- If a gazania is planted in an area of your yard that receives full sun it will bloom around the same time every year or up to two weeks early due to warm weather and extra sunlight.
- If a gazania is planted in an area of your yard that received partial sun it will bloom around the same time every year.
- If a gazania is planted in an area of your yard that receives shade and is not protected from wind or rain it will bloom anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks later than its average time.
