A petite perennial that thrives in sunny spots spreading charm with its bright bicolour blooms. From early summer to autumn, this garden gem bursts into life, adorned with cheerful golden petals that gracefully encircle a radiant crimson-orange centre. The long-lasting flowers dance atop slender stems, creating a captivating spectacle that attracts pollinators like butterflies and bees. With its compact stature, 'Daybreak' gracefully complements patio containers and border edging, adding a splash of vibrancy to any outdoor setting. Its cheerful blossoms can also be snipped and brought indoors, bringing a touch of outdoor joy to cut flower vases.
Perfect for potting up and growing on, these perennial rooted cuttings would benefit from some cold protection during the earlier parts of the year before planting out after the last frosts are forecast. The flowers are sterile so require no deadheading. Water well during hot, dry spells. Cut the faded flower-stems back down to ground level in autumn and compost.
