Growth habits of the marguerite daisy

The marguerite daisy is a plant of the genus Argyranthemum in the Asteraceae family, native to Australia and southern Europe. It blooms every December and in May of the following year. It can be grown as a potted ornamental and can also serve as background greenery, providing a very good foil.

The marguerite daisy likes a moist environment and is afraid of water accumulation and waterlogging. It is not tolerant of heat, and during high summer temperatures, leaf drop may occur. Its cold tolerance is not strong, so in winter the temperature needs to be controlled well to ensure it overwinters safely.

The marguerite daisy has a very strong reproductive capacity; sometimes even just roots, stems, and leaves can survive. In certain areas, if one is not careful, the marguerite daisy becomes the main plant.
