How To Plant And Grow DaisiesWondering how to plant and grow daisies? The daisy is an "easy to grow" perennial (a plant that will come back year after year). You can plant a daisy straight from seed, but keep in mind it will probably not yield any blooms the first year. The following years will be better -- your daisy should yield many blooms. Once your daisy plant is established (after 3 to 4 years) you should separate the plant so it does not become overgrown. The daisy perfers to be planted in rich, well drained soil and in full sun. The reason for the daisy's popularity is its easy care and low maintence. The daisy is a very forgiving and tolerate plant -- it will thive in poorer soil conditions and even in partial shade. To help your daisy plant flurish you can fertilize with a high phosphorous mix. This will promote blooming. This plant is sheldom brothered by insects. If, however, your daisies are assaulted (and it does happen on rare occassions) you can treat the plant with an insecticidal soap.
