Comet Daisy 140MM

Argyranthemum frutescens Comet Series

I am Comet Daisy. My family originated from Canary Islands.

Habit Shrub - Long Flowering

Plant family Asteraceae

I'm the Comet Marguerite Daisy. I bloom beautifully from summer and through autumn. I'm a compact, 45cm tall charmer that butterflies can't resist. Adaptable I appreciate a sunny aspect but tolerate shade. I perform well in almost all soils but dislike those that are waterlogged. I am perfect in gardens, general landscaping and a great choice container grown. Bright and colourful I bring beauty wherever I am grown.

I am popular and will make you happy because...

I produce masses of large flowers in a broad range of pastel shades from early spring and through summer

Adaptable I am just as happy growing in a pot or other container as I am planted out in the garden

My colourful blooms attract butterflies an beneficial insects.
