One of my favorite flowers in the garden are Dahlberg Daisies. They are bushy little annuals that have cute little yellow daisy flowers. I have four little pots on the front steps.Dahlberg daisies are native to south central Texas and northern Mexico.
They are drought tolerant and easy to grow. I get them every year and have never had a problem with insects or diseases at all! The only maintenance is that you do need to deadhead them. Look closely and you can see the spent flowers that I need to remove. The nice thing about deadheading these cuties is that they have a spicy, almost lemon scent that you can enjoy as you work!

They are really versatile too. You can plant them in a bunny..
..or, add them as a filler in a container with mixed flower.
They look good in any container. See how they tend to cascade over the pail onto the stones? I think I am going to buy some for the sunny bed in back and plant them behind the stone border. Wouldn't that look good!Dalhberg Daisies like well drained soil and want to live in full sun. I can't recommend these more! If you want a cute little flower with a spicy, citrus smell--then this is the flower for you!
