I love this plant. Very hardy BUT now I find the petal are being eaten by something that I cannot see or detect.
I have checked on them in the evening and morning and I find no bugs or worms...(any ideas?)
I brought this plant from N.C. and planted it as soon as I got home (W.Va.) it seems to be growing and spreading well even with the problem.

I love this daisy; it is so full of petals, you can't help but take a second (and third) look. The stems are strong enough that it doesn't flop like some are prone to do. My seed packet says hardy in zones 4-11. Light aids germination of seeds.

This plant is easily grown in average, well-drained soils in full sun. Although it isn't picky about soil conditions, good drainage is essential.
Propagation: Seed is usually sown in midsummer to early fall for flowering the following June and July. Four to six weeks after germination, seedlings are ready to be transplanted. Cuttings can be taken in summer. Divisions may be done in the spring.

I planted five Crazy Daisy clumps last spring; they bloomed all summer with dead-heading and they all came back this spring.
No critters ate them; they did not get eaten by insects; they did not require staking.
What more can a person expect from a plant?
