Daisy lawn in trend!
Hi
I have been trying to propagate a daisy lawn for 5 years. Anyone know how I can grow more daisies? As it's classed by some as a weed you can't by it by seed. Any suggestions welcome.
ps. a daisy lawn is the only thing that stays green in drought and dog wee doesn't kill. It's a new trend in the making as it looks so pretty too.

I can't see your pic i'm afraid Kittyrose, I do like the sound of this though - is it a lawn full of daisies basically? I do love when you see huge swathes of them in the park (those and dandelions too)

You can buy any seed from somewhere

Please don't advocate taking wild flowers from verges or anywhere else. Even if it is "only a daisy". Uprooting wild plants is illegal under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. Of course, you may be able to find someone who wouldn't mind you removing daisies from their lawn!
Hi
Thanks for your comments, I shall now be ordering seeds tonight (don't worry no digging up of anything on the roadside!).
Pictures attached this time (scroll down as there are two) so you can see what I am trying to do!
Thanks everyone.
I love a flowery lawn

Beautiful

Fantastic, much nicer than manicured stripes!
