Zone: 9BEE ALIVE DOUBLE ORANGE BIDENS
Bidens ferulifolia 'Bee Alive Double Orange' is an exciting, high-energy novelty annual that brings a vibrant splash of color to the garden. As the first double-orange Bidens on the market, it features a non-stop abundance of fluffy, double-petaled daisy flowers in a warm, rich blend of burnt-orange and golden-yellow. The striking bicolor blooms stand out beautifully against a fine, airy canopy of deep green, fern-like foliage. Maintaining a highly controlled, tightly mounded to slightly spreading habit, it reaches a tidy 8 to 10 inches in height and spreads 18 to 24 inches wide, keeping a dense, well-branched shape without getting leggy at the crown.
Bee Alive Double Orange Bidens is a heat-tolerant performer that requires a position in full sun to achieve its maximum flower potential and keep its tight, compact form. It is a premier choice for sunny borders, rock gardens, and window boxes, and it functions as an exceptional "filler" in mixed patio containers and hanging baskets. It is highly adaptable to a variety of soil types, provided the medium is well-drained. Once its root system is established, it exhibits excellent drought tolerance; however, providing moderate, consistent watering will maximize its blooming performance through the peak of summer.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil consistently moist during the first few weeks. Provide support for upright varieties. A light application of a general-purpose fertilizer early in the season will support its continuous, pollinator-friendly flowering cycle from spring until the first hard autumn frost.
