Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

They're beautiful Mups, they look like they are double flowered

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

That is the nicest superbum I have ever sen Mups. Thank you.

It is a lovely plant, is it scented?

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

Thankyou Mags & Dongle. As I said earlier, the clump got so big I dug it up after flowering, and divided it.
The smaller half looked a bit 'touch and go' for a while, but it eventually got going and is now in flower like the bigger one.

No dongle, it doesn't really smell much at all.
I am very pleased with it though, there are so many buds constantly opening, and it flowers right on till autumn.

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

Look how tall it grew. I have had to tie it up. Just hoping it decides to grow back next year.

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

Is there a way to stop them growing so tall? I've had to tie them up where possible.

Lovely border by the way LD.

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

Thanks Annie. I don't know how to make them smaller (I'm not that clever). I do love them and so do the bees but they are dwarfing other plants behind them. I'm hoping that when I eventually cut them back, the other plants will flower. I know there's a Crocosmia behind there somewhere.

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

Your border does indeed look very pretty dongle.

There is some good, clear info here about pruning these Daisies. Have a read, see what you think:

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

They should die back in the next two to three weeks. But don't worry they will be back next year!

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

Thanks Mups, interesting that they can be divided every few years, I didn't know that. i think i might have a lot of dividing to do next Spring.

Re: Another name this plant/weed thread.

I love the fact that the blooms have lasted so long, that's my type of plant.
