Specifications:
- Type: Perennial flower seeds.
- Quantity: Pack of 50
- Planting season: Daisy Flower Seeds are typically planted in the spring or fall.
- Soil requirements: Daisy Flower Seeds require well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter.
- Sun exposure: Daisies thrive in full sun to partial shade conditions.
- Bloom time: Daisies typically bloom from late spring to early fall.
- Water requirements: Daisy plants require moderate watering, with soil kept evenly moist but not waterlogged.
- Species and varieties: Daisy flower seeds belong to the Asteraceae family. Common species include Bellis perennis (English Daisy), Leucanthemum vulgare (Oxeye Daisy), and Gerbera jamesonii (Gerbera Daisy). Each species has various cultivars with different colors and sizes.
- Hybrid or heirloom: Daisy flower seeds can be both hybrid and heirloom. Heirloom varieties are often open-pollinated and have been passed down through generations, while hybrid varieties are bred for specific traits such as color, size, and disease resistance.
- Pruning and training: Regular deadheading of spent flowers encourages continuous blooming and prevents self-seeding. For perennial varieties, cutting back the foliage in late fall helps prepare the plant for winter. Gerbera Daisies may require staking to support their large blooms.
- Fertilization needs: Daisies benefit from a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer applied in early spring and mid-summer. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers. Organic compost or well-rotted manure can also be used to enrich the soil.
- Hardiness zones: Daisy flowers are generally suitable for USDA hardiness zones 3-9, depending on the species. English Daisies thrive in zones 4-8, Oxeye Daisies in zones 3-8, and Gerbera Daisies in zones 8-11.
- Climate requirements: Daisies prefer full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. They thrive in temperate climates with moderate rainfall. Gerbera Daisies, in particular, require a warmer climate and protection from frost.
