I planted them last spring and was surprised when they started blooming about a month after I planted them. I thought they only bloomed in the fall, but perhaps I was mistaken. There are only three plants, but they have gotten quite large and are providing a mass of golden color for our fall enjoyment. They also seem to attract all sorts of beneficial insects, and they have a very pungent, but not unpleasant, aroma.<\/p>\n<div class=\"captionfull\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lostvalleygardens.com\/LVGblog\/imageshome\/ccdaisies1.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Copper Canyon Daisies<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"captionfull\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lostvalleygardens.com\/LVGblog\/imageshome\/ccdaisies2.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Copper Canyon Daisies<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"captionfull\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lostvalleygardens.com\/LVGblog\/imageshome\/ccdaisies_closeup.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Close Up of Copper Canyon Daisies<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>This giant swallowtail butterfly came to visit yesterday.
