Brachyscome multifida is endemic to Australia and a brilliant free flowering hardy ground cover daisy.
This cute little daisy has fine feathery foliage and can grow to about 50cm diameter and about 40cm high.
It prefers full sun in good quality free draining soil. The flowers usually appear from mid winter until summer but they can spot flower continuously if conditions are right. The flowers are usually shades of pinks and purples.
They don’t mind the cold or a little bit of dry but do need a top up water.
Fertilise then seasonally with a good quality complete organic fertiliser like Organic Link. They also appreciate a liquid fertilise with Triple Boost to keep them powering on.
I think these guys make great fillers in gardens and work like a living mulch. I also have seen them tumbling out of urns and as hanging basket specimens for full sun areas.
I think these guys are really cute and would work well in a cottage or formal landscape. Sometimes we all need a daisy in our lives.
