English Daisy Habanera® Red Tips
Grow as a winter annual in hot climates!
Habanera Red Tips's blooms measure 2 inches across and appear even larger, for the central petals stand straight up in a tight red spiral. They completely hide the foliage on this neat, compact plant, which grows just 6 inches high and wide in partial shade. A fine choice for baskets, windowboxes, and patio containers, Habanera Red Tips also works well in the garden, nestled among the spring bulbs and early bloomers such as Sweet Alyssum Snow Crystals.
In the south, you can even grow it as a cool-season annual, where it will bloom through winter among the Snaps and Pansies! It makes a stunning counterpart to the deep crimson Snapdragon, and a cheery companion to the blue-and-white Pansy Ultima Morpho.
English Daisies are not difficult to grow, provided you do NOT cover the seeds at germination. They thrive in climates where nights are cold and summers are mild. Plant in partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. Pkt is 50 seeds. Zones 4-8.
