    I grew some ox-eye daisies from seed last year, and they are just about to come into flower now. They're very easy from seed, and much cheaper if you want more than a couple of plants (1 seed = 1 plant = lots of flowers).

    I sowed the seeds in May in a seedtray, pricked them out into small pots in June, then planted them out in the garden in Sept.

    If you want flowers this year, however, you will need to buy them as plants.
