Bellis Bellissima Series
Masses of pink, scarlet and white, pom-pom like flowers appear in autumn and again in spring above the spoon-shaped bright green leaves. Bellis perennis 'Bellissima' is a beautiful and long-flowering mixture of daisies, which although tolerant of partial shade, will flower best in full sun.
Hardy and evergreen, these seedlings are often grown as annual bedding where their compact and neat habit makes them perfect for edging spring displays in windowboxes, patio containers, borders and paths.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

How to care for Bellis perennis Bellissima Series:
Pot up and grow on in a well-lit and ventilated frost free environment (such as a greenhouse, coldframe or conservatory). Plant out after all risk of frost has passed.
Pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier growth and keep well watered. Feed with a good, high potash fertiliser (such as Tomorite) on a regular basis and pinch off the spent flowerheads to encourage more to form.
