Commonly recognised as a Marguerite daisy, 'Lolly’ produces an abundance of pink flowers with yellow daisy centres. The compact mound of foliage makes an ideal plant both containers and borders. 'Lolly' is reliable and grows well, needs no pruning or dead heading and re-flowers for many months from spring onwards into summer and autumn.
'Lolly' is happy in many situations from containers to gardens. We have often seen 'Lolly' growing on terraces and windowsills in homes and around commercial buildings throughout Europe. They are distinctive and easily identified by sight. In sunny gardens or smart feature pots 'Lolly' shines.
Plant 'Lolly' into the sunny garden after preparing the bed by digging to loosen the soil and incorporate compost and a light dressing of organic based fertiliser. Water in after planting and keep moist until the plant is established. There is little more to do apart from applying liquid fertilizer as a boost when needed.
In containers use the best quality potting mix you can purchase. One that retains moisture but is well-draining is best. Add some slow-release fertiliser and plant 'Lolly' in the normal way. Keep in a sheltered position for a few days to establish before placing in a sunny corner of your outdoor living areas where you feel some colour is needed.
'Lolly' comes to us from the inhouse breeding programme of the Kientzler Company in Gensingen, Germany. Here in the glasshouses surrounded by farmland close to the banks of the Rhine, hybrids of Argyranthemum frutescens were raised and superior varieties selected. From these 'Lolly' was selected and grown for several seasons before introduction. 'Lolly' was an instant success.
