Like little scoops of ice cream, this Shasta Daisy will charm you as it comes into focus in early to midsummer. Intense yellow buds open cream and expand to be near white, fully double, pom-pom-like flowers with small yellow centers. The flowers are 2½-3″ wide and totally cover the compact habit of dark green foliage.
Easily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils in full sun. Good soil drainage is essential. Wet soils in winter can be fatal. Tolerates some light shade, particularly in hot summer climates or when plants are being grown in dryish soils. Remove spent flower heads to promote additional bloom. Divide clumps as needed (every 2-3 years) to maintain vigor.
