Argyranthemum collection - Marguerite bush

This Argyranthemum collection for borders and balconies is an assortment of 3 varieties of Argyranthemum from the Grandaisy series. These recent horticultural hybrids are characterised by brightly coloured 6 cm daisy-like flowers and a real ease of cultivation. They are tender perennials commonly grown as annuals which form small bushes of 50 cm that bloom from May-June to October and require little maintenance. Their stems are highly branched and the finely divided leaves make up abundant, green-blue foliage, aromatic when crushed, and very light in appearance.

The collection consists of:

- 1 Argyranthemum Grandaisy 'Gold': flowers with a bright and contrasting colour, golden yellow with a brown-red centre.

- 2 ArgyranthemumGrandaisy 'Ruby': red flowers with a dark centre finely circled in yellow, extremely bright.

- 2 Argyranthemum Grandaisy 'Pink Tourmaline': flowers combining frosted mauve and pink and an almost black centre with a white ring.

These Grandaisy Argyranthemums are sun lovers and dislike excessive moisture in winter. In frost-free climates, plant them in the ground in spring, in well-drained, slightly acidic, neutral, or chalky soil. Allow 5 plants per square metre. Elsewhere, grow them in large pots that you can overwinter frost-free. 'Grandaisy' Argyranthemums soon form charming, rounded flowery clumps that look stunning mixed with fennel, borage, cosmos, or blue and white love-in-a-mist flowers. They can also be placed in flower beds, rockeries, borders, or along a path in a steep garden. And of course, they offer a fantastic display in flower pots, accompanied by Silver Falls Dichondra, silver basket or dwarf snapdragons, on the terrace or balcony.

Note: Please be aware that our plug plants are products reserved for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, transplant and store them in sheltered areas (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame...) at a temperature above 14°C for a few weeks before being planted outdoors once all risk of frost has passed.
