Whether planted for garden vibrancy or striking bouquets, Painted Daisies are a timeless favorite that heralds the arrival of summer with their radiant petals.

The Painted Daisy, also known as the tricolor daisy, is a stunning heirloom wildflower introduced from Morocco over 200 years ago. Standing about 2 feet tall, these bushy plants burst into midsummer bloom, showcasing vivid, 3-inch-wide flowers in a riot of red. The striking concentric color patterns make every bloom unique, creating a mesmerizing display in gardens, meadows, and floral arrangements.

Native to North Africa’s coastal regions, this showy annual blooms through summer and fall, readily reseeding itself for a continuous floral show year after year. Originally cultivated as an herb in 15th-century China and later in 17th-century Europe, these daisies have long been cherished for their beauty and symbolism of innocence, simplicity, and modesty. Their tall stems and long-lasting blooms make them excellent cut flowers, perfect for bringing bursts of color indoors.
