$7.99
'Becky' is one of the best forms I have grown and is particularly good in the heat of the south. They stand upright, even after flowering and a hard rain, and flower for up to 8 weeks if the large, white flowers are deadheaded. Allan Armitage / North Creek Nursery.
Perennial of the Year 2003, awarded by Perennial Plant Association.
3-4' tall x 2-3' wide clumps of dark green, glossy leaves. very strong, sturdy stems with 3" wide flowers from July till September. Doesn't require staking.
Average to loamy soils in full sun (half shade in deep south is recommended). Medium moist to medium-dry soils. Plants tolerate some droughts, but will appreciate some occasional deep watering during summer drougts.
Don't plant in waterlogged soils.
Hardy in zones 5 to 9, heat and humidity tolerant. What is great, that shasta daisies are deer and rabbit resistant. May attracts honeybees.
"Leucanthemum × superbum, commonly called Shasta daisy, is a hybrid developed by Luther Burbank (1849-1926) in the 1890s near snow covered Mt. Shasta in northern California. Burbank crossed L. vulgare (European oxeye daisy), L. maximum (Pyrenees chrysanthemum), L. lacustre (Portuguese field daisy) and Nipponanthemum nipponicum (Japanese field daisy) to produce Leucanthemum × superbum which was given the common name of Shasta daisy. This hybrid typically grows to 2-3' tall with a spread to 18" wide." Missouri Botanical Garden
Excellent cut flower, great plants for flower bed or cottage garden. Can be combined with majority of perennials for sunny location. It's recommended to divided and renew the older clumps for more vigor (after 3-4 years or later - according to the plant condition).
Pot size : square 3.5" x 5" deep pot

Shasta daisy Becky
I’m extremely pleased with these flowers. They arrived intact and healthy during a week of heat index in the 100s.
