I got one (grand daisy red) as a little plug plant and it has proved a bit of a star. Anyone know if these are perennials? Or worth taking cuttings for next year?

They are not hardy (to my knowledge) but you can take cuttings - I bought a tiny single plug in the spring and have had half a dozen successful cuttings from it for this year. Theoretically you could overwinter it in a frost free spot and I'm going to give this a try although it can be a bit hit and miss.

Brilliant! It can join my annual load of osteospermum cuttings. My office garden has managed to keep 3 zonal geranums alive overwinter, so maybe I'll take this years plants for overwintering there, to see if they make it.

Thanks!
