Marguerite Daisy | Argyranthemum 'Lollies White Chocolate'

Argyranthemum 'Lollies White Chocolate' is a compact, long-flowering marguerite daisy prized for its masses of creamy white blooms with soft buttery-yellow centres that gradually mature to crisp white, creating a fresh, elegant display. It flowers prolifically from late winter (August) through spring, summer, and well into autumn (May), with peak flowering during spring and early summer. Its neat, rounded habit makes it ideal for borders, patio pots, mixed containers, cottage gardens, rockeries, and mass plantings where continuous colour is desired. Thrives in full sun and performs best in well-drained soil, rewarding gardeners with exceptional flowering for many months.

Why You’ll Love It

• Produces an abundance of creamy white daisy flowers for many months of the year.
• Compact, tidy growth is perfect for containers, borders, and smaller gardens.
• Excellent for attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators.
• Coastal tolerant, making it well suited to many Cape Town gardens.
• Low-maintenance and quick to rebloom after light pruning.

Planting & Care

Position this compact daisy in a full-sun location with excellent soil drainage to achieve the heaviest flower display. Keep the roots consistently and evenly moist, as letting the soil dry out entirely will damage the buds. This modern hybrid stays neat naturally, but a light overall shearing mid-season will quickly refresh its shape and spark new blooms. Feed the plant regularly during spring and summer with a flowering fertilizer to fuel its non-stop production.

Did You Know? 

The 'Lollies' series of Argyranthemum was bred for improved branching and an exceptionally long flowering season, meaning each plant naturally produces more blooms with less pruning than many older marguerite daisy varieties.
