"English Daisy"

(bellis perennis)

Spring is not far off here in the Pacific Northwest and perhaps you're thinking about color for your flower garden. The English Daisy is a low-growing perennial that works well in rock gardens, open woodlands and planters and comes in a variety of colors. Flowers in light-pink, red, yellow and white varieties and most have a yellow center.  Loves full sun to part-shade and blooms from late winter to late summer. They do self-seed and can show up in your lawn... so a little dead heading may be in order and yet produce more flowers. Pests include aphids and rabbits but their known to be deer resistant (so they say).

Happy Gardening!
