Why we love this plant!

The Australian Daisy is a hardy, drought-tolerant native that produces a profusion of daisy-like flowers year-round, attracting butterflies and beneficial pollinators. Its compact and spreading growth habit makes it ideal for rockeries, borders, and container planting, adding continuous colour and texture to the garden. Thriving in coastal and inland areas, it is a low-maintenance choice for gardens across South East Queensland, from Brisbane to the Sunshine Coast.

Care Considerations

Watering preferences:

  • Water regularly until established, then reduce frequency based on rainfall.

Mulching preferences:

  • Applying mulch around the base may help retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Fertilising preferences:

  • Fertilisation is not required, but a balanced fertiliser during the growing season may support growth.

Pruning preferences:

  • Deadheading spent flowers may encourage continuous blooming
  • Light trimming after flowering may help maintain shape.

Good to Know:

  • Flowers for an extended period, making it a great option for attracting pollinators.
  • Prefers well-draining soil to prevent root rot in humid conditions.
