BELLIS perennis Mix 5g
English Daisy
Family: Asteraceae
Characteristics: Perennial 12-15 cm
Seed per gram: Approx. 6,200
Bellis perennis Mix is very low-growing and has flowers in white, pink, rose, and red, commonly known as English daisies.
They are excellent for containers, rock gardens, borders, and alternative lawn mixes. Although they do not tolerate heat, they provide afternoon shade in hot summer climates.
English daisies are a wonderful cool-season perennial. They create beautiful, low mats of foliage topped with neat blooms. They will produce many colourful blooms if the weather isn’t too hot.
Although English daisies are perennials, they are often treated as annuals due to their temperamental nature in the summer heat.
This low-growing plant makes a great companion to other cool-season plants like pansies and ornamental kale.
Bellis perennis is native to Europe.
