Shasta Daisy

Leucanthemum x superbum Wirral Supreme

• Position: full sun or partial shade
• Soil: moderately-fertile, moist but well-drained soil
• Rate of growth: average
• Flowering period: June to September
• Hardiness: fully hardy

  
  A pretty ruff of long, white, slightly reflexed petals surround a central disc of densely packed, short petals, lemon coloured at the centre. One of the best double-flowered varieties, this tall, sprightly shasta daisy will flower throughout the summer and coolness and freshness to a summer border. It makes an excellent cut flower, too.
  

• Garden care: Divide congested plants in early spring or late summer. Protect young plants from slugs and snails. Cut down to the ground in autumn.
