    I ordered these seeds last year and planted out my flowers about a year ago. The flowers are lovely. The plant is very hardy/tough and will spread (wider, not reseed) quickly. However, these got over 4ft tall. I wanted a daisy border at the front of one of my beds. They were really cute last year, thick with blooms. This year they were about 4.5 ft tall, and covered in blooms, when I finally dug them out. They were smothering out my other plants and stading out everything around them. They only flopped a little in heavy rain, which I thought was good for their size and would make perfect cut flowers since each stem was over 3 ft long, but that wasn't what I was looking for. I would totally recommend planting these if you have a large area that you want to fill in quickly and provide large beautiful blooms from a distance or height.
