Cultivating Lazy Daisies: Bringing the Meadow's Charm to Your Garden
Lazy daisies are relatively easy to grow and are a welcome addition to any garden. They prefer full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. These hardy plants can tolerate a wide range of conditions, making them suitable for both formal and informal gardens.
To start lazy daisies from seed, sow the seeds directly in the garden in early spring or fall. The seeds should be covered lightly with soil and kept moist until germination occurs. Once the seedlings have emerged, thin them out to give each plant enough room to grow.
