200 White Marguerite Daisy Seeds - Argyranthemum frutescens - Pollinator Friendly

White Marguerite Daisy (Argyranthemum frutescens) is a charming, sun-loving perennial often grown as an annual in cooler climates. Its crisp white, daisy-like flowers with bright yellow centers bloom profusely from late spring through fall, creating a cheerful display in borders, containers, and cutting gardens. The ferny, finely divided green foliage adds texture and contrast, making this plant a versatile choice for both formal and cottage-style landscapes. Pollinators such as bees and butterflies are attracted to the nectar-rich blooms, enhancing garden biodiversity.

Easy to grow from seed, White Marguerite Daisy is a rewarding choice for gardeners seeking long-lasting color with minimal fuss. Whether used as a bedding plant, in mixed containers, or as a front-of-border accent, its abundant flowers and bushy habit provide season-long interest.

Planting & Care

Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover completely as light aids germination. Maintain a temperature of 65-70°F (18-21°C) and keep the medium consistently moist but not soggy. Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant into individual pots and grow on in a bright, cool location before hardening off and planting outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.

In the garden, choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Water regularly during dry spells, and deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Apply a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks for best performance. In hot climates, some afternoon shade is beneficial.
