Medallion Daisy
Melampodium paludosum
Melampodium bears beautiful small, golden, daisylike blooms on bushy plants that tolerate heat, drought, and pests. Grow them as an edging plant or in containers.
To start seeds indoors: About 14 weeks before your last frost date, sprinkle the seeds over a premoistened medium, then cover the seeds lightly with vermiculite. Keep the temperature at 65° to 70°F. Sprouts should appear in a week or two. Transplant the seedlings to the garden 2 weeks after your last frost date.
