Tips to Grow Oxeye Daisy

  1. Arrange good quality Oxeye Daisy seeds.
  2. The soil should be evenly moist, but not wet or soggy. It should be neutral also.
  3. Keep the seeds uncovered so light can help them germinate. Daisies grow best in full sunlight, though they can also survive in partial sun.
  4. After that, reduce watering to one to two inches per week. Oxeye daisies are drought-tolerant, so wait until the soil dries out before watering.
  5. To extend the flowering season, deadhead the flowers when they have wilted to encourage more growth.
