Common Questions
Do English daisies come back every year?
This plant easily reseeds itself so yes, they return every year. If you do not want the daisies to come back, remove the entire plant after they bloom and before the flowers produce seeds.
Are English daisies drought-tolerant?
No, this flower is not drought-tolerant and needs moisture to thrive.
My English daisy’s are wilting, why?
Most likely your plants need more water. They do not do well in dry conditions and need regular watering in the absence of rain.
Do I need to deadhead my English daisy’s?
No, you do not need to prune or deadhead your English daisy plants.
Help! My English Daisy plants are not blooming?
This could be due to three things: They are first-year plants so you will need to wait another year to see them bloom. It could be a lack of sun, they need four to six hours of daily sunlight. Or, they could be getting too much nitrogen and a quick-release liquid high-phosphorus fertilizer could remedy that. However, in hotter zones, a break from the afternoon sun will keep them blooming longer.
