Tips for watering daisies

1. Generally, you don’t need to water the daisies you just bought home immediately. Wait until they adapt to the environment before watering them. If you want to repot them, you can water them thoroughly once after potting them.

Water in time after the flowers fade to keep the soil moist. After the temperature drops, water as little as possible.
