How to grow
Choose a sunny spot: Oxeye Daisies love the sun, so make sure you choose a spot that gets at least 6 hours of sunlight every day. Prepare the soil: These plants prefer well-drained soil, so make sure the soil is not too heavy or compact. You can add some organic matter like compost or peat moss to improve the soil texture. Sow the seeds: Sow the seeds directly in the soil in early spring, after the last frost date. Scatter the seeds evenly on the soil surface and cover them lightly with soil. Water the seeds: Water the seeds gently to avoid washing them away. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged until the seeds germinate. Thin the seedlings: Once the seedlings are a few inches tall, thin them to about 12 inches apart to give them enough room to grow. Fertilize the plants: You can fertilize the plants with a balanced fertilizer once a month during the growing season.
