Bidens ferulifolia Golden Eye
Apache Beggarticks, Fern-leaved Beggarticks
I wanted to try growing some bidens but nothing sprouted, no shoots. When I saw the appearance of the seeds, I had a big doubt. In comparison, I successfully sprouted seeds of Petunia x hybrida pendula at the same time without any issues. If I have to try again, it will be with different seeds.

Description
The Bidens ferufolia Golden Eye is an annual mainly used in hanging baskets and containers. Its very compact habit (25cm) is perfectly suited for container gardening. Its numerous yellow flowers, shaped like small stars, bloom from June to October. In mild climates, they can even continue blooming until November. If the frost is very light, the foliage will also retain its green color during the winter.
Bidens is a must-have for pot culture. Thanks to its ramified stems spreading in all directions from its base and its dark green, finely cut foliage, it provides a great base for taller neighbors, such as verbenas. The golden-yellow color of its five ligulate flowers surrounding its small heart brings a lot of brightness during the summer season and allows for numerous combinations. It will thrive alongside purple annual lobelias, dark blue Surfinia petunias, and will contrast with red begonias.
Low-maintenance, it only requires a little grooming to remove faded flowers. However, it is rather demanding and appreciates fertilizer. Additionally, don't forget to water it in case of high temperatures.

Planting and care
The Bidens ferulifolia Golden Eye is preferably sown under cover in a seed tray from February. If frost is still persistent in your region, wait until March, as the seeds will prefer a temperature between 13 and 18°C.
Just cover the seeds with a thin layer of substrate that you will keep slightly moist. Place them in the sun (essential) and if possible, wrap the pots in a transparent plastic film during the germination period. They will sprout between 10 and 21 days. When the seedlings are large enough to be moved, you can separate them and put them in pots if the frost period is not over and keep them warm. Otherwise, you can arrange them in flower boxes or pots. You can gradually acclimate them if the nights are still cool by taking them out of their shelter during the day. Prefer a rich substrate that is not too waterlogged.
To further branch out the Bidens, as soon as the plants have reached at least 5 cm (2 in), you can pinch the tips of the stems to encourage them to divide.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
