Plant_lover w/ photo above, hi, I am new to them and can say some of mine in the pots like that did the same thing, but they had to stay inside because unusual hard freeze on the coast, so brought them in, sunny window, along with a few outdoor cyclamen, and only lost one. I would say get them out into the pot or ground asap, as I am about to do, since they may be unhappy inside a pot! They do like the warmth above 30 degrees F for sure, 20 degrees no. So happy planting, advice from a tried and true friend who runs her own nursery on the coast also near me, is they survived best if planted along her house, meaning guess here they require some attention to protection, as well. But she says they are adorable and good in pots for now, too so I am hopeful they will make it! (photo of them still in the little black pots, together w/ the hardy cyclamen which I pray comes back cause I left it outside when the 20 degrees F hit! That was not smart! Anyway they look great together, supposed to come back, not demanding either one so before long maybe into ground or pot??

Carygardener, I think you convinced me to start my plants from seed. I paid a good price for the 3 Daisy plants I bought. Thanks Happyintexas! Good news is that at the base of the problem plants there is nice new green growth! Thanks Ellen, At the beginning of the season I sprinkled garlic powder at the base of plants to keep the rabbits away. I worked for a while. This was before the Daisy's though. I do though put some Garlic powder in the pepper spray since I know the rabbits don't like it. I have not sprayed the daisy's for a while now and they are coming back at the base. As far as ingredients the only thing I put in the solution is pepper and garlic. I read about soap and egg whites. Never liked the idea of soap and did not like the idea of spoiled spray that I imagine would be caused by the egg whites. It seems to work on all but the viola's that I have. The rabbits just love the flowers of the Viola for some reason. I spray in the evening. A2zmom, I live in Mercer County. My raised garden the soil is a dream. I spent a lot of time working on the soil. The other gardens I amended pretty well. It is a real drag digging in areas other than the gardens, especially when it has not rained in a long time. It is as hard as cement! Ken

billy gardener, I had the exact same thing happen to my Becky's this year. They bloomed great the first flush, then they started their sporadic blooming for the remainder of the season(which is what my Becky's always do - they're the best shastas in this area) HOWEVER - the blooms never opened, they turned brown and died. I cut them all back and hoped they'd try again, but they haven't. I'm hoping it's not a disease in my garden, but just a result of an unusually cool and wet summer for my area. Has your weather been that way this year? I'm hoping maybe that's it, if it's not - I'm shovel pruning them, if they do it again next year.
