Marguerite Daisies Sturdy and Stunning

I'm a firm believer that a garden is incomplete without at least one member of the daisy family in a bed or container.

Marguerite Daisies Sturdy and Stunning

The classic flowers have an impressive ability to instantly make you smile, brightening outdoor spaces with colour from spring to autumn. from. But if you’re looking for something tough and low-maintenance, Argyranthemum (marguerite daisy) should be your first choice. They have the adorable flower shape everyone recognises from their first-ever childhood flower drawing, combined with stunning colours and impressive resilience.

As ornamental plants, marguerite daisies are wonderfully cheerful. The blooms work wonders in various settings, including borders, containers, and hanging baskets, infusing each with a vivid pop of colour.

Their sturdy stems and vibrant blooms also make them excellent choices for cut flowers. A vase filled with these flowers can bring the outdoor charm right into your home, creating an indoor arrangement that’s both pleasing to the eyes and the mind.

Aside from their visual appeal, one major benefit of Argyranthemum, is their ability to attract pollinators. The nectar-rich blooms are a favourite among bees and particularly butterflies, helping enhance your garden’s biodiversity and injecting life into your backyard.
