Grow your own Gloriosa Daisies! These plants thrive in moist, fertile, well-drained soil and bloom best with ample moisture. While color variations may occur due to genetic instability, planting several plants increases the chance of enjoying a diverse mix of colors. These daisies are not only visually appealing but also contribute to a thriving garden environment. They are a true perennial that generally flowers in its first year but may take an additional season to produce marketable stems. They require long days to flower, meaning they will initially focus on root and leaf growth in shorter days, then bloom as the days lengthen. This growth pattern helps achieve the best stem length for robust, healthy plants.

Providing prompt attention will help your Gloriosa Daisy adjust to its new environment and begin to thrive. We recommend preparing your planting site beforehand to ensure a smooth transition for your new garden addition.
