bidens

Dazzling daisy-type flowers in shades of orange and yellow that bloom above compact, ferny, medium green foliage until heavy frost. They are vigorous growers and self-cleaning (no deadheading required). Excellent in sunny, dry hanging baskets and mixed container gardens. Stunning combined with dark purple petunias and hot pink geraniums.

Grow in sunny areas, in well-drained, amended soil or containers. Feed with a slow release fertilizer, Osmocote® or Plant-tone®. Follow label instructions. Deadhead as needed; good repeat blooming. Mulch 2″ to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature.
