For best results, plant Becky Daisy in locations that provide well-drained soil that retains a little moisture and plenty of sunshine. This plant will spread to for a patch, so give it plenty of space to grow...maybe a 3 to 4 foot wide area.

I fertilize Becky Daisy in spring, just when new growth begins to emerge, with a mild, organic plant food.

I usually cut Becky Daisy back a bit after it has finished blooming. In early spring, I remove all of the previous years dead foliage. I do this pretty much every spring for many types of perennial plants. It's usually about the same time I prune roses and crape myrtles.

Becky Daisy might require some supplemental water during prolonged periods of dry weather during the hotter summer months. On the other hand, consistently moist or wet soil can cause problems with roots. Well-drained soil is best. Regarding insects, I haven't seen any serious problems. The deer around my property don't touch it.
