Leucanthemum (Shasta Daisy)
Shasta Daisies are all-time favorites for the perennial border. The cheery flowers begin to appear in late spring and continue on for several months if faithfully deadheaded. Shastas mix so effortlessly with other perennials that no garden should be without them! A plant that is easily grown in average, well-drained soils in full sun.
