not quite centered

This flower was among those that I dug out from my sister's yard in preparation for her move. I'm just loving it and its floral companions in my garden! Such a bright spot in my day :)

Today they load the truck and she&Chris&Pete&Stinky are on their way north. We are looking forward to croquet and DDR and Riverside nachos in their new home!

I believe that is a gazania, or "treasure flower" -- which seems like such an apt name in this instance, doesn't it?

I think you're probably right! I have the yellow and orange versions in my garden right now. It's just a bit common-looking (not spectacular in the same way as a gerber daisy or a rose), but I love it just the same :)
