Finally. I find that on all flowers, if you want them to last as long as possible, keep them in shady spot and do not let the water get on the flower.

 

[Carol 83]

Nice! If you can keep the flowers dry they will last a REALLY long time. Mine on the mother plants are already damage from a couple rain storms we had recently.

Yeah, I should have moved them, pouring down here at the moment.

The mama plants are fending for themselves in the garage. The cuttings are inside under the lights.

You have some good growth already. That one in the second pic will have some good movement. Remember to wire early while the branches are still flexible.

Hi, do you still have any of these daisies for sale?

Yes, I still have them available. They are currently in the hoop tunnel. I can pull them out once the snow melts if you're interested.

Looking good! Mine are buried in snow. I'm curious how far they'll die back.

My mother plants are out under the snow as well. I will assess once the snow melts.

One of your Nippon Daisies just where I left it when it came in last year!



I got really busy when it came in and had heaped soil around the pot, so it rooted right into the soil underneath. I actually discovered I’d left it alone when I moved the bench in front of it into storage. So I pruned it back and left it there all winter to see how it would do, with some bark chips around/atop the pot.

It got frost bite last week, but otherwise seems in good shape. I’m gonna get to it soon!…

cheers

@Deep Sea Diver you got some good thick branching there. I have new growth pushing on mine here as well. We just got hit with a snow storm today so tomorrow I'm going to see how they are doing when it clears up.

 

[Carol 83]

My two mother plants are awake after spending the winter in the garage. The couple cuttings I took spent the winter inside under the lights.

 

[penumbra]

I'll follow up with mine soon. I had them outside all winter so we will see what they can do.

 

[RJG2]

Mine didn't die back like I expected here in Maine! No crazy protection aside from mulching in with leaves.

One is stronger than the other because it had access to some extra dirt in secondary pot. The stronger one is pushing, and the weaker one has barely done anything yet.

Here's the stronger one, I cut them both back a bit in the early fall just for ease of handling:

Good growth there!

I think I'll have to repot them and give those roots some more space to breath, but we have plenty more frosts coming.

You can always throw a frost blanket over to protect it for a night.
