I have had Montauk daisies but not great luck with them. The little brown june beetles eat the heck out of the leaves, then I have bare stems with a few flowers. Gita, aren't you secretly hoping that you do NOT have to haul a 40 pound clump of soil to Swap? You'e got all those cuttings and they do root easily.
I took my last Montauk out for the garage and am not sad...
