Planting Instructions
How to Plant Gloriosa Daisy Seeds
When to Plant Daisy Seeds
Daisies are almost foolproof to grow. They can be planted in the spring, summer or fall. Most gardeners sow their daisy seeds directly in the garden.
Where to Plant Daisy Seeds
Choose a sunny location that is well-protected with rich, well-drained soil. Compost can be mixed with your garden soil.
How to Plant Daisy Seeds
Use a hoe or rake to scratch the top of soil. Then, toss the seeds on top. Daisy seeds should only lightly be covered with about 1/8 inch of soil. It is important to maintain a good level of moisture until the seeds have germinated (in approximately 14 days). If you desire, a general fertilizer can be applied during the early growth stages and monthly thereafter. Before the daisies bloom, you can switch to a high phosphorus fertilizer. This will give you bigger, brighter flowers.
How to Care for Daisies
Daisies need average amounts of water.
Once your perennials are established, separate your varieties by division every 3 to 4 years to avoid overcrowding. Dig up clumps and separate them into groups to be replanted.
If you live in a cold climate, give your daisies a layer of mulch to protect them during the winter.

Review
Wow!!
Rudbeckias are probably my favorite flowers. They really reward you for your efforts or lack there of as they require almost no care. Plant it and forget it till it blooms and gives a stunning display! One seed packet was enough to cover 150 ft of fencing, I put 12 around a tree in my front yard, I gave away maybe 40-50 plants, and I put 20 or so around in various parts of my yard. All from one seed packet! I am beyond pleased with these!!! It’s the beginning of June and they are all starting to bloom. I would highly recommend these!!! Happy gardening 😊
