Overview

Golden-yellow petals splashed with a bold red star make this a real standout for summer pots and borders. The daisy-like flowers appear in abundance from early summer to the first frosts, forming a compact, gently mounded plant that will also spill lightly over the edges of baskets and containers.

Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, it’s easy to grow and quick to reward you with colour. Keep it well watered in containers and feed regularly to maintain a steady show of blooms, with just a light trim if it needs tidying.

Reliable, pollinator-friendly and full of impact, Bidens 'Sunbird Yellow Red Star Improved' is perfect for brightening patios, balconies and the front of sunny beds.

Care guide

Our bedding range and bedding collections (where available) are offered as seedlings, cuttings, and potted plants.

Pot up seedlings and cuttings and grow them on under glass until the risk of frost has passed. Once conditions are warmer, they can be planted directly into well-prepared beds, or used to fill patio pots, window boxes, and hanging baskets for long-lasting seasonal colour. Larger 9cm bedding plants don’t usually need potting on but will benefit from initial frost protection in spring.

To keep bedding plants looking their best, and where applicable, pinch out the tips to promote bushier growth and water regularly, especially in containers where compost dries out quickly. Feed with a high-potash fertiliser every couple of weeks to encourage continuous flowering. Deadhead faded blooms, as required, to extend the display and keep plants tidy, ensuring vibrant summer flowers from planting time right through to the first frosts.
