            Just be careful watering them as they get powdery mould very easily. I grow mine from seed and they are all outside in the garden...but I am way down south, maybe that makes a difference.:dunno:

              If I may. Bellis perrenis is of the daisy family. It is now some years that it became popular. At one time it was used extensively in parks and gardens as an edging plant. Also used wre plants such as ageratum, lobelia and alyssum. There was agood reason for their popularity. They were easy to grow, germination was at a very high rate. They all produced an abundance of seed. So growing in extremely high volumes, costs were radically kept down. Each of the named plants basically are annuals or half hardy annuals. Agreed plants can be split up and or cuttings taken. This often remains something of a gardeners choice. As said, germination etc is so easy. To use any of the aforementioned plants as pot plants, is to be honest a bit querky. The general overall makeup of the plant/s in no way indicates that they are suitable as pot plants. Bellis perrenis also attracts whitefly. Never mind. Enloy the plant.
