For Punjab, Sindh, and most plain regions, sow from September–February; plants establish through winter and bloom from late winter into spring (February–April). In cooler northern hill areas (Murree, Swat, Hunza, Quetta), sowing can extend to March–April for summer blooms. Provide full sun, well-drained soil, and moderate watering. Plants decline once temperatures consistently exceed 30°C, so time sowing for cool weather. Note: Annual Painted Daisy This is Chrysanthemum carinatum 'Dunnetti', an annual painted daisy that flowers in its first year from seed. It is different from the perennial florist mums (Chrysanthemum × morifolium) commonly known as Gul-e-Daudi in Pakistan.
