Cobbitty Daisy is a tender perennial subshrub that brings cheerful, daisy-like flowers to warm-climate gardens and summer containers. Argyranthemum frutescens produces showy white blooms with bright yellow centers, each flower reaching 2.5 inches across, on bushy plants that grow 2 to 3 feet tall and equally wide. Hardy in USDA zones 10 to 11, it blooms prolifically throughout summer in full sun and moderate moisture, though it may slow during intense heat. In cooler regions, gardeners treat it as an annual, enjoying it for a single season or overwintering cuttings indoors.

The Cobbitty Daisy rewards deadheading with waves of fresh blooms, and its aromatic, deeply cut dark green foliage adds texture even when flowers fade. Plant it in full sun with well-drained soil and moderate water, and it will perform reliably without serious pests or diseases. The fact that cultivars don't come true from seed actually gives gardeners an excellent reason to propagate cuttings from their favorite plants in late summer, creating a personalized collection year after year.
Cobbitty Daisy serves as an ornamental flowering plant for garden beds, containers, and summer displays in warm climates. Its compact, bushy growth habit and long bloom season make it valuable for adding sustained color to patios, decks, and mixed flower borders.
