Daisies

Since the unsuccessful attempt to grow vegetables in the pot, I decided to grow daisy instead.

This is the RED daisy that blooms after the first batch that withered.

Daisies love the sun. It seems that they will face the sun.

 There is a small daisy budding out.
three red daisies.

The daisy plant die several weeks ago. We have to remove all the leaves as it has turned soft.
The roots are still there. It is left dormant. It has been dry and humid in August and September.
When the weather turns,  surprise, green shoots appears from no where. It is coming back from the dead unexpectedly. This is indeed an positive outcome as I was thinking of replacing it with another daisy plant by uprooting the old plant.

 After a few days, more leaves appears. Looks like daisy can be quite hardy after all.

I wonder why the first bloom will happen.

After 2 months of waiting, there is a single bud waiting to sprout.

Still looks deformed.  The petals look poorly developed. I hope the next flower will be better.

Parts of the leave are starting to brown due to the exposure of strong sunlight. I hope the recent rain will help to soften it.
