How to grow blackfoot daisy

Melampodium leucanthum

When to plant blackfoot daisy

A low, mounding perennial for full sun that needs excellent drainage and tolerates poor, dry soils; it is a low-water plant best propagated by seed (its taproot rules out division). Plant it deep, and cut it back to half its size in late winter to keep it compact.

Blackfoot Daisy is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
