African daisies flower when the nights are cool, so they're a great way to brighten up winter gardens in areas without hard frosts. Although the vegetatively propagated pot varieties are showier, the seed-grown varieties are tougher and more likely to grow as perennials. Plant them in pots or mass them in beds for a show of yellow, lilac, purple, and pink blooms. Tip: pinch out the seedlings tips as soon as they are big enough for even more blooms.

Growing Information
How to Sow
African daisies germinate very easily and may even self-seed in the garden. Sow the seeds where they are to grow for best results. However, they recover fairly easily from transplant shock, so if you prefer to sow seeds in containers, feel free to do so. Just cover the seeds with medium and keep moist.
