Daisies, those emblematic flowers with rustic charm, can be successfully sown in your garden. Here are Hubert the gardener’s tips and detailed method for sowing daisies:
Introduction: Although white daisies can be sown directly in the ground, these annuals can also be sown in a wooden box to create a charming scene in your garden.
Steps for sowing daisies:
Drainage: To start, make sure to drain excess moisture by placing gravel at the bottom of the box if it doesn’t have holes.
Substrate preparation: Add sowing substrate to the edge of the box and compact it lightly.
Initial watering: Before sowing, generously water the substrate to moisten it.
Sowing: Scatter the seeds evenly over the entire surface of the box or tray. For Little Princess daisies with shorter, sturdier stems, staking is not necessary.
Reminder: Remember that for proper sowing density, it is preferable to sow the seeds densely.
Covering the seeds: Lightly cover the seeds with a thin layer of substrate.
Compact: Compact the substrate lightly again to maintain moisture on the surface.
