I've been given a pot of marguerites (which I think are the daisy family) but can't find anything on the internet about looking after them. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Marguerite Daisies are perennial plants, they are usually grown outdoors, treat them like any other perennial plant.
Fertilise regularly with a liquid fertiliser or use a general slow release if you prefer.
Cut back about a 1/3 of the plant after flowering to maintain good shape.

The latin name is Argyranthemum (prev: Chrysanthemum frutescens); they are evergreen perennials. If you put the latin name into a search engine on the internet you should get quite alot of information. I think they are usually treated as an annual in much the same way as pelagoniums.
