: I can grow anything except shasta daisies and marigolds.
: I live in Western Australia and it doesn't matter which part of the State I live in I have been unsuccessful in growing these beautiful flowers. Does anyone have any idea of the reason for this?
: I will be so grateful if someone can come up with the solution.

Hi Renee,

Daisies are my favorite flower and I can't grow them either. I think it's because my garden stays too wet in the winter (for you that would be your summer) when the plant is dormant. Don't know the reason for the marigold problems except the slugs ate all mine.
