Shasta Daisy

It is a perennial that stays low to the ground has green leaves and divided leaves. It bears immense flowers in spring and early summer clusters that develop into flat oval seed pods. The daisy plants spread vigorously. With proper care, it can become an aggressive weed.

The daisy plant can be propagated by seed. The seeds need light to germinate, so it is important to sow them in a ground area that receives adequate sunlight.

About two weeks after the sowing of the seeds, germination should occur. You will see the green shoots popping up above the ground surface. The young sprouts should be transplanted into larger pots with space for growth and root development, which may occur two months after transplanting them from the seedbed site.

To obtain the best results, it is recommended that the young plants be transplanted one foot away from the daisy plants during the growing season. The plant will adapt to its new environment while providing fertilizer and water.

The daisy plants need regular pruning. This activity should be done frequently to avoid lumpy growth near the plant base. This will allow light to properly circulate through the plant, provide more nutrients and promote an optimum growth environment.

They can be grown indoors or outdoors. If grown outdoors, make sure that it receives adequate sun as well as a moderate amount of water. If grown indoors, place the pot near a sunlight source. The soil should be kept moist but not too wet or dry for the healthy growth of the plants.

In addition, the water must be continuously applied to the soil if the Shasta Daisy are grown in pots. You should mist the plants with water at least every day. The watering and fertilization process should be done as often as necessary to keep the soil moist during the growing season and necessary for plant maintenance.
