Tips to Grow Marguerite Daisy

  1. Arrange good quality Marguerite Daisy bulbs.
  2. The soil should be well-drained, fertile, and slightly acidic.
  3. Plant bulbs 1-½ to 5 times their own depth. Where winters are severe, make sure there are at least 3 inches of soil covering the bulb. Spacing should be 3-6 inches.
  4. We can add (light) compost made from animal waste (nitrogen-rich) for better growth.
  5. When cut, Marguerite Daisy should be kept alone in a vase, as their stems secrete a fluid that promotes the wilting of other flowers. If you must combine them, soak them by themselves for as long as possible, then rinse them and add them to the arrangement last.
  6. Note that contact with the sap of Marguerite Daisy may irritate skin or aggravate skin allergies.
