Livingston Daisies - no flowers
Hi,
I've got 2 pots of livingston daisies which have grown to a nice full size (and have been so for approx 2 months), but still no sign of any flowers. They have been well watered and get approx half sun/half shade during the day. Anyhting obvious I could be doing wrong? Thanks Andrew |

hi,
I believe it has something to do with this years climate, in the UK anyway. I grew two tray fulls this year some are in hanging baskets, and some in borders, all plants are healthy and very bushy but shy in flowering, and the flowers are very small. At first i fed with miracle grow for three feeds, (got free sample sachet) after that fed with half strength phostrogen but still flower shy. Oh well, there's always next year. regards Cineman "Andrew" wrote in message ...

The message

We grew them in Africa, and the Sunset book recommends full sun (in the USA!) But it may also be a good idea to grow them in poor soil, and NOT fertilise them after their initial growth.
