Osteospermum (Greek, bone seed). Compositae. A group of South African yellow-flowered shrubs or subshrubs, scarcely in cultivation.

Leaves alternate or rarely opposite: heads many-fld. radiate; pistillate fls. all rays; staminate fls. all disks, with abortive ovules and style; involucre in few rows, the scales free: achenes of the ray drupaceous or nut-like, thick, very hard, glabrous and without pappus.—Thirty-eight species are known, all S. African. In Flora Capensis 3:433-436, the whole group is monographed.
