Argyranthemum Madeira Double Red

Common Name:
Madeira Daisy 'Double Red'

Description:
The Argyranthemum 'Madeira Double Red' is a vibrant and compact perennial, renowned for its profusion of deep red, double daisy-like blooms that add a striking splash of colour to any garden setting. Its lush, dark green, finely divided foliage forms a neat, mounded habit, making it an excellent choice for borders, containers, and bedding displays. Thriving in full sun, this cultivar prefers well-drained soil and benefits from regular deadheading to encourage continuous flowering from spring through to autumn. While it is frost-tender, in Melbourne's climate, it can be grown as an annual or overwintered in a protected spot. Its long blooming season and low maintenance requirements make it a favourite among gardeners seeking enduring colour and form.
