Argyranthemum (Marguerite Daisy)
×
Color Name: Yellow Beauty
Spectacular bright lemon-yellow daisies for all season. Heat tolerant, and sun loving. An all time favorite because of its excellent garden performance. Versatile, use freely in patio planters, and landscapes. Brilliant golden centers accent the pure yellow petals. These bright annuals bloom from early spring until fall and stand atop lacy, deep green foliage. These pollinator friendly plants are drought tolerant and are great thrillers when planted in patio containers and the landscape.
Growing Tips: While newer Argyranthemum are much more heat tolerant than older varieties, they will still do best with cool night temperatures. Our varieties have been selected to flower continuously without deadheading. If night temperatures are regularly staying in the high 70's or above, plants may flush out of bloom. If this happens, give them a trim using a sharp pair of scissors or pruning shears (think of it as giving your plant a haircut). This will help induce more branching and fresh growth and the plants will be at their best when night temperatures drop and the plants begin to bloom again.
An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance. We suggest fertilizing every two weeks during the hot summer months of June, July and August with Maxsea, which you can purchase at Zehr's. When planting in containers, hanging baskets and window boxes, we recommend using our potting soil which is specially formulated for our plants.
