Growing & Maintenance Tips for Nipponanthemum nipponicum

Thrives in full sun or partial shade in a well-drained soil with some tolerance of poorer soils, including salt spray. Remove spent foliage in the spring. Clumps should be divided every 2-3 years to maintain their appeal. Montauk daisies tend to drop their lower leaves;  planting them behind something else will lessen their unsightliness.
