During an after-breakfast walk in the Tidewater area of southeastern Virginia, we encounter a stunning spread of daisies! For a bonus, we spot a Red Admiral Butterfly feeding on a daisy flower head.

For the beginner gardener, daisies are an easy plant to grow because they are resistant to most bugs and pesticides. However, if not controlled, daisies will rapidly multiply and could become serious weeds. For other low maintenance plants, click here. Check your local Home Depot, Lowe’s or online Burpee Gardening for their selection of low maintenance plants.
