Commonly known as the daisy, is a perennial flowering plant that belongs to the Asteraceae family. This species is native to Europe but has become widely naturalized in various regions around the world, including North America. The plant is characterized by its distinctive white petals surrounding a yellow central disc, which can create a visually appealing display in gardens.

One of the notable features of Bellis perennis is its ability to thrive in a variety of soil types, although it prefers well-drained, fertile soils. The plant typically grows to a height of 10 to 30 centimeters and can spread up to 25 centimeters in width. Its growth habit is low and rosette-like, making it an excellent choice for ground cover or as an edging plant in garden beds.

Bellis perennis is known for its resilience and adaptability. It can tolerate a range of environmental conditions, including partial shade and full sun. This adaptability allows it to flourish in diverse garden settings, from formal landscapes to wildflower gardens. The plant is also capable of self-seeding, which can lead to naturalized populations in suitable environments.

In terms of flowering, the Bellis perennis typically blooms from early spring to late summer, with peak flowering occurring in late spring. The flowers are not only aesthetically pleasing but also serve as a valuable nectar source for pollinators such as bees and butterflies. This makes the common daisy an important component of biodiversity in garden ecosystems.

From a horticultural perspective, the Bellis perennis is relatively low-maintenance. Regular deadheading can encourage prolonged blooming and prevent the plant from becoming leggy. Additionally, it is advisable to divide the plants every few years to maintain vigor and promote healthy growth. The plant is generally resistant to pests and diseases, although it may occasionally be affected by aphids or fungal infections in overly damp conditions.

In summary, the Bellis perennis flower plant is a versatile and attractive addition to any garden. Its ability to thrive in various conditions, coupled with its appeal to pollinators, makes it a valuable choice for gardeners looking to enhance both the beauty and ecological health of their outdoor spaces. Understanding the characteristics and care requirements of this plant can lead to successful cultivation and a vibrant garden display.

OUR PLEDGE TO YOU

Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations.

For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative. We pledge to you that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants.  The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats.

We wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities.

We do not buy - OR - grow any seed from large corporations that make Genetically Engineered seeds.  We don't touch that stuff and we never will.

The seeds we offer aren't like varieties you'd typically find at a garden center. 

Every variety we offer is 100% OP (open-pollinated).  Open-pollination means that you can safely save the seed after harvest and preserve a collection of heirloom seed for many generations to come.

To make it perfectly clear ... Our seeds do not contain any exogenously inserted embryogenesis deactivator genes caused by human intervention.
