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
