sun or partical shade
planted in front garden autumn 07
bought some seeds from T & M - i buy them every year for winter interest so i thought i would save some dough and try to grow them from seed now that i have the green house!
sowing time June to September, sow in pots or trays of moist seed compost and cover with a very fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite, do not exclude ligh as this helps germination. keep surface of the soil moist but not wet. germination will usually take 7-21 days. when large enought ot handle transplant seedlings into 3" pots. gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before planting out in october.
will flower through the winter in well drained soil in full sun or part shade.
Bought 3 new Bellis to help brighten up the terrace in cold bleak February when Spring is still a hope.
4 plants for £2 bought from samanthas in collier row late march 2008 - i know that i have some very simulr seeds to sow but these where just so lovely last year when i bought some there that i just could'nt resist! i have planted 2 in the left hand bed, and 2 in the cottage garden bed.
Bought 4-11-08 at Lowe's for $3.00. Family Asteraceae.
Supposed to be perennial Zone 4-8.
