    Description

    The Santa Barbara Daisy is known for its delicate and daisy-like flowers that bloom white and pink as well as its long blooming period, especially in cooler, moderate coastal climates. Blooms best in spring and fall. The foliage is a bright green color that forms a low, spreading groundcover. This lovely and adaptable perennial, also known as the Seaside Daisy, is ideal for any garden or landscape.

    Santa Barbara Daisy is a hardy and easy-to-care-for plant that is suitable for both experienced and inexperienced gardeners. It can grow in a variety of soil types, but it thrives in well-drained, fertile soil and full sun. Because it can withstand salt and coastal conditions, it is an excellent choice for gardens near the sea and is considered to be drought-tolerant.

    Known here in California as the Santa Barbara Daisy, Erigeron karvinskianus is native to Central and South America and has many common names, but no matter what you call it, this trailing ground cover looks great in rock gardens, coastal gardens, or cascading over walls.

    Order your Santa Barbara Daisy from Plants Express today to add a lovely and long-lasting splash of color to your coastal garden! It will be a treasured addition to any landscape with its delicate and daisy-like flowers and long blooming period. It's a tough and adaptable plant that can be used as a groundcover, in rock gardens, or as an accent plant.

    Plant care

    The Santa Barbara Daisy, also known as the Seaside Daisy, is a lovely plant with lots of daisy-like flowers. They can be pink or white and can bloom almost year-round in the right conditions. It has bright green leaves and makes an excellent low ground cover.

    When planting Erigeron karvinskianus, choose a location in your coastal garden that receives plenty of sunlight. For hotter inland gardens, plant in a location that will get some light afternoon shade. This plant prefers well-drained soil and grows in a variety of soil types. It also tolerates coastal salt spray. 

    Santa Barbara Daisy requires little care; but for best results, prune after blooming to encourage a second flush of blooms, or cut back in winter to maintain appearance. Fertilize once a year with a balanced fertilizer.

    The Santa Barbara Daisy will brighten up your garden with its plethora of white and pink daisy-like flowers spilling out of pots or cascading over rocks or walls. It will make an interesting ground cover in your garden!

    FAQ's

    A: Frequency depends on the amount of humidity in the air. In hot arid climates you may need to water more frequently than in a coastal garden.
