The First Daisy Of Summer.

 

Our first Shasta Daisy came in flower this week.

I propagate these every year by division.  I have also grown them from cuttings.

Apparently they are named after the snow capped mountains in California in north America.

I love them.  I have never known such a good year for flowers.  Its been glorious.

I have been working all week and been too busy to blog until now.  Will catch up with your blogs.

  3. One of my favourite flowers, I can't get them to grow in our heavy clay soil, I have one growing in a big pot, my dad always grew them, only flower he grew, he always said he only grew things you could eat. I loved his vegetable garden.

  4. They are wonderful Marlene. I think it was my Irish grandfather and my dad's brothers who inspired me to grow things. John Seymour is my smallholding self sufficiency guru. Please write some posts about your dad's vegetable garden. I plan on visiting the Eden Project this year and a return to Heligan. I last visited it twenty six years ago.
