Evelyn's Notes:
Biden, (pronounced bid-ens) is a delightful easy to grow plant. These plants will bloom all year and do nicely for several years with just an occasional cutback. Yellow is an important accent color in any garden and goes with every color.
Growth Habits:
Planted in the ground, Bidens has a soft fluffy look to it that feels like a meadow. Give it an occasional cutback as needed.
Shade/Sun:
Sun (at least 6 hours/day)
Feeding and Watering:
Water: Daily in a basket, in the ground water as you would other garden plant. Fertilizer: Bidens looks much better if you feed it on a regular schedule. Any good balanced liquid fertilizer will do....of course Weidners’ fertilizer is the Best.
