detailed seed-starting info below

Yellow daisies from a tuft of dark-green strap-shaped leaves. Hardy relative of the tender daisies we used to grow as annuals way back when we started gardening. I remember the bunnies were especially fond of them, complicating the process of planting them out in spring; so far, I haven't noticed the same preference for these hardier ones.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following area: orchard nursery area
