I bought a clay pot yesterday at GC with quarter price knocked off. There is a pretty pinky/mauve plant, Bacopa, 2 million bells Petunias and a Busy Lizzie stuffed into a 10 inch pot. Pot probably got too dry with so many plants. I have never had the Daisy like plant before. Could you please ID. Patient already recovering after a long soak.

The pink flower is an Argyranthemum. These are tender summer bedding/container plants that will flower until the frosts come. Deadhead regularly to keep new flowers coming. Also try taking some cuttings to get more plants!! It can be overwintered in a warm g'house or similar.

Hi Whistonlass....I hope the little pot gets over the neglect. Thanks Volunteer I might try what you suggest if Argyranthemum.....gosh.... keeps up with flowering.

Lucky you! I think it's Argyranthemum 'Vancouver'.
Had it, lost it! Story of everyone's winter.....

Now Beattie.....I'll just have to find one of those plants if it's called 'Vancouver'...lol....my homeland and place of my birth :)

Just make sure you take it indoors for the winter Whistonlass. It's not at all frostproof, unlike the real Vancouver!

Okey doke, Beattie...it's on the list! lol

Take some cuttings when it's finished flowering.

It sure looks like a member of the chrysanthumum family but no idea of the variety. It's a beauty...good find, Dorjac.
