Argyranthemum 'Molimba® Red'

 

Marguerite Daisy 'Molimba® Red'

Argyranthemum is commonly called marguerite, marguerite daisy or dill daisy and is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Asteraceae. Varieties and cultivars are widely sold as garden plants, for summer bedding or containers. Single or double daisy-like flowers coloured white, pink, yellow or purple throughout the summer months. They are half-hardy, and can be grown from seed or cuttings, or purchased as young plants to be planted out after all danger of frost has passed. The Molimba® Series of Marguerite daisy has better tolerance of Summer heat than most Marguerites. The plants are compact, with frilly foliage and many daisy-like flowers that last better that other Marguerite daisy types in the hottest weeks of mid- and late Summer. Flowers first appear early in the Spring and continue for a long flowering season.'Molimba® Red' bears claret red flowers

Planting

From Late Spring TO Late Spring

Marguerites tend to be considered tender perennials in the UK and other temperate zones, though growers say they can last through a mild winter. Therefore it is recommended that plants are either treated as summer bedding or, if larger, brought into the cool greenhouse or conservatory during the winter months. Plant out in full sun and to be planted in well-drained, poor to moderately-fertile soil. However, the species A. frutescens is said to prefer partial shade and moist soil. Young plants to be planted out after all danger of frost has passed.
