INTRODUCING DAISY SEEDS

Daisies have adorned landscapes for centuries. Symbolizing innocence and purity in various cultures, their name derives from “day's eye”. This name refers to how the flower opens with dawn and closes at dusk. Daisies are versatile in hardiness. Generally, they thrive in USDA zones 3 to 8 and are celebrated for their low maintenance and resistance to drought.

PLANTING DAISY SEEDS

Various daisies require different growing conditions, so always refer to the back of your packet for the best information on your chosen variety. Plant daisy seeds either directly in the garden come early spring, or start them indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost. Barely cover the seeds with soil. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination, which will start within 2 to 3 weeks. When seedlings are sturdy enough, transplant them outside. Space according to the needs of the growth habit of the particular daisy seeds you’re growing.

MAINTAINING DAISY PLANTS

Daisies are easy to care for. They prefer soil that drains well and has moderate moisture. Once established, they tolerate drought very well. Removing dry flowers will encourage continuous blooming throughout the season. Daisies can be divided every few years in spring or fall to maintain health and vigor.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are heirloom seeds?

Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques. You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.

How do I know my seeds are fresh?

Every seed packet includes a "packed for" date, and we germination test each seed lot before packaging to ensure you receive viable, high-quality seeds that are ready to grow.

Are your seeds chemically treated?

No, we do not pre-treat our seeds. All of our garden seeds are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.

Will your seeds grow in my USDA Hardiness zone?

The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.

What is the shelf life of these garden seeds?

Most seeds remain viable for 3 to 5 years or longer when stored properly. Check your seed packet for specific varieties. For best results, keep your seeds in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Store them in an airtight container in a consistent temperature environment—a refrigerator or cool basement works well. Proper storage helps maintain germination rates and extends seed life well beyond the packed date.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?

The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically. Whenever we do have to source outside of the US, we ensure our seeds are safe to grow, non-GMO, heirloom varieties that meet our standards for germination and reliability.
