Healthy starting plant Easy to grow and care zone 5-9 Dark green leaves perennial long blooming Bright white flower with yellow in the middle Leucanthemum superbum (or Shasta daisy) is a commonly grown flowering herbaceous perennial plant with the classic daisy appearance of white petals (ray florets) around a yellow disc, similar to the oxeye daisy Leucanthemum vulgare Lam. but larger. The ever-popular shasta daisy is a robust perennial which gets 2-3 ft (0.6-0.9 m) tall and grows in a bushy clump with foliage spreading about 18" across. Shasta daisies bloom over a long period from early summer to autumn with happy bright white flowerheads borne singly atop long green stems. The heads are 2-5 in (5.1-12.7 cm) across with snow-white ray flowers and golden yellow discs. The foliage grows in a mat with glossy dark green leaves 8-12 in (20.3-30.5 cm) long arranged in a basal rosette. The leaves are strap-shaped, nearly evergreen, and rather thick. There are smaller leaves on the erect flowering stems. Shasta daisy is sometimes confused with ox-eye daisy (L. Vulgare), which is a smaller plant that blooms earlier with smaller flowerheads only 1-2 in (2.5-5.1 cm) across. The picture is shown for reference purposes only.
