Care essentials
Swan River Daisy requires full sun for best flowering. In NE Florida, plant in fall through early spring as a cool-season annual — the intense summer heat will end bloom and kill the plant. Choose an open, sunny spot with good air circulation.
Water moderately, keeping soil evenly moist but never waterlogged. Well-drained soil is essential — soggy conditions cause root rot. In NE Florida's mild winters, rainfall is often sufficient; water only during dry spells.
Grows best in sandy to loamy, well-drained soil with average fertility. Avoid heavy clay. A light application of balanced granular fertilizer at planting is sufficient; over-fertilizing with nitrogen produces foliage at the expense of flowers. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong the display.
