Description

One of our recent favourites; semi-double and double velvety blooms in subtle shades of caramel, copper and warm pink. 2ft (60cm) These so-called Gloriosa Daisies are magnificent plants for the border - the giant, single or double, daisy-like flowers, averaging 5ins across with some up to 7ins, are carried on long stems from early summer until well into autumn, and are excellent for cutting. Sown early, will bloom the first year. An eye-catching display, and also has the benefit of attracting a wide arrange of pollinators to the garden.

Sowing Advice

For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
