Leucanthemum × superbum ‘Phyllis Smith’


Shasta Daisy

 USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.316.610


(Formerly Chrysanthemum maximum) No sunny border would seem complete without the familiar presence of Shasta Daisies. This is a seldom offered British selection, featuring single flowers with very finely-cut or fringed petals surrounding a yellow centre. Excellent for cutting. Removing faded flowers will greatly increase the blooming time. Divide plants in the spring every 2 to 3 years to maintain vigour. Shasta Daisy is a well-behaved garden hybrid, and should not be confused with the weedy Ox-eye Daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare).
