Plant in a sunny position with free-draining soil to encourage strong growth and continuous flowering. Keep plants well-watered while establishing, then gradually reduce watering as the roots develop and the plant becomes more drought tolerant. A light trim after flowering flushes will help maintain a neat shape and encourage fresh growth. Feed during the growing season with a balanced fertiliser to support healthy foliage and an abundance of blooms.
African Daisies have a fascinating relationship with sunlight. Their flowers naturally respond to changing light conditions, opening their blooms in bright daylight and often closing in the evening or during dull weather. This natural movement helps protect the flower structure while creating a beautiful daily display in the garden.
