Sow Gloriosa Daisy seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.

Thin seedlings to 12-18 inches apart when they are large enough to handle.

Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Gloriosa Daisy is generally pest-free and deer-resistant, making it a wonderful addition to low-maintenance landscapes.
