When is the daisy flowering season?

The main flowering period is from March to October

Behind the delicate shape of wild daisies hides a robust constitution that gives us a never-ending bloom. Bellis perennis has learned frosty temperatures to stand up. As a result, the small perennial puts on its flower dress long before its Mediterranean counterparts. The following overview summarizes when you can look forward to the charming flower heads:

• Main flowering time of the wild species: March to October
• Main flowering time for cultivars: March to June
• Winter mild wine-growing regions: January to November

Since various regions have been completely spared frost as a result of global warming, the white-yellow ray florets can be admired all year round. This applies to wine-growing areas or along the Lower Rhine as well as in gardens with a protected microclimate.

The quality of the location influences the flowering period

Daisies are among the sun worshipers. If you assign Maßliebchen a full sun to shady location, the flowering period will in practice fulfill what the theory promises. In shady locations with heavy, wet loam soil, Bellis only manage to achieve a sparse and shortened flowering period.

Cleaning out extends the splendor of the flowers - this is how it works

If you prefer undemanding flowers in the creative garden design, come along easy-care Bellis perennis not over. Strictly speaking, you can leave daisies to their own devices in the bed. Gießen takes over mother nature with summer rain. Fertilizer is superfluous anyway.

In order for Tausendschön to keep what the name promises, withered flowers should be removed regularly. For those who find it too time-consuming to clean out individual remains of flowers, cut back the mini perennials immediately after the main flowering period in order to elicit a nice second flowering period.
