Plant Description: Large, bright red, daisy-like flowers bloom in summer to fall, fading to pink with age. The foliage forms a clump of dark-green foliage in the spring. Best bloom occurs with moderate water and late-afternoon shade.
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
