Re: Swan River Daisy


I was glad to get confirmation on the spelling.  A few years ago I
bought a Brachyscome melanocarpa from the Santa Cruz Arboretum gift
shop, and always wondered if it was just a misspelling by an Arboretum
volunteer. 

The plant has done well in red clay, spreading out some, and blooming
non-stop from spring through late fall.  Can anyone tell me what its
minimum temperature tolerance might be, and what kind of situation and
climate it is native to?  My attempts to root above ground stems have
never succeeded, but divisions of the underground network is easy. Any
tricks to stem cuttings?
