Care essentials
Plant in full sun for best flowering; Bush Daisy blooms most prolifically with 6+ hours of direct sun daily and performs well in NE Florida's heat when drainage is excellent.
Water regularly until established; once established, Bush Daisy is drought tolerant and needs only occasional deep watering during dry spells — avoid wet or poorly drained sites.
Thrives in average, well-drained sandy or loamy soil; apply an all-purpose slow-release fertilizer in spring to promote season-long bloom, and trim lightly after heavy flushes to encourage reblooming.
