    I found senetti very short lived I wouldn't buy them again although they are admittedly eye catching. I have grown and enjoyed those silver leaved small flowered marguerites and the green leaved yellow flowered one. They are not as in your face but can be overwintered and cuttings root easily.

    I prefer Senetti. When the flowers die down cutback to the base of the flower stems, give them a liquid tomato feed and you will get a second display of flowers. Should last well into summer
