What is a daisy? A daisy can be almost any flower that, well, looks like what a daisy is supposed to look like. And here lies the problem. Several flowers have a similar "daisy-like" appearance that mimics an honest-to-goodness daisy.
Gertrude Stein famously stated, "A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose," but in this ebook, a daisy may not be a real daisy. What plant is the real daisy out of several imitations? Well, you will eventually find out, but no matter what we call a daisy, it and all similarly constructed others are just as pretty for uninterrupted summer enjoyment.
The majority of the plants described in this ebook, being either annual or perennial, are easy to grow from seed or transplants and require minimal care. They provide long-blooming, colorful garden displays, and best of all, they will provide you with a variety of long-lasting cut flowers. Each flower serves as a perfect landing platform for all visiting pollinating bees and fabulous butterflies.

G. Edwin Varner grew up on a farm, helping his father in the crop fields and assisting his mother in the flower and vegetable gardens. This experience and learning led him to receive a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a minor in Botany.
He successfully owned and operated a fragrant flower mail-order nursery for twenty years. Unlike most mail-order nurseries publishing colorful but expensive pictorial catalogs, his frugal catalog extensively described the flowers he grew. He once said, "I write a thousand words worth a picture in my catalogs." Today, he has the same style of writing (thankfully with fewer words) through a variety of enjoyable and informative ebooks. This time, the ebooks include color photos of each flower.
He encourages you to cultivate something unique and beautiful in your gardens. His motto is "Read about it, see it, grow it and enjoy it!"
G. Edwin Varner owns Green Thumb Publications and lives in a rural area of northeastern Ohio, USA.
