Propagating by division

From Early Autumn TO Mid Autumn

For propagation, divide a clump in Autumn, after flowering, to give the divided plants a chance to establish before Spring. Divide a clump by pushing a spade under the clump and levering it up, then carefully pulling apart the plants. Re-plant immediately in moist soil, and water in.

 

Flowering

From Late Spring TO Early Autumn

Daisies flower all Summer.

 

Plant

From Early Spring TO Early Spring

Plant daisies in Spring or Autumn. They prefer full sun, but will tolerate some shade. Bear this in mind when preparing a site. Digging in some manure before planting will help the plant to establish quickly
