Brachycome (Brachycome Iberidifolia Mix) - Sow Brachycome flower seeds to produce this lovely, versatile plant for the garden. Sometimes called Swan River Daisy, Brachycome Iberidifolia is a fast growing flower that will add dimension to your early spring garden. Globe-shaped plants produce numerous daisy-like flowers in a mix of colors including: blue, pink, and white. The flowers form on top of attractive fern-like foliage creating a cloud of soft color. Brachycome plants look especially lovely spilling over the sides of containers or over the ledge of a rock wall. In the flower border, Brachycome Swan River Daisy is a good choice for filling in around tall, leggy plants and carpeting bare spots.



In early spring 6 - 8 weeks before the end of frost season, sow Brachycome flower seeds on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays. Keep flower seed moist until germination. Transplant seedlings after danger of frost has passed. Swan River Daisy seeds can also be started directly outdoors once danger of frost has passed. Trimming the Brachycome plant after a full flush of blooms helps ensure continuous blooming.
