How to grow Cape daisy 'Arusha'

  • Medium

Keep in mind when planting that Arusha is thought of as half hardy, so it will require protection in frosts and low temperatures.

Growing Arusha from seed

Sow at a depth of approx. 0.04 inches (0.1 cm) and aim for a distance of at least 11.7 inches (30.0 cm) between Cape daisy plants. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 18°C / 64°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Arusha about 56 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Arusha

As Arusha is half hardy, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
