Shasta Daisy
Leucanthemum x superbum
(lew-KANTH-ih-mum) (soo-PER-bum)
Remembering encountering this patch of daisies is easy since
it imparted a warm and happy feeling. Some of that was the struggle over
several seasons getting them to cooperate. This year I decided to feed them in
the early spring while I was literally fertilizing hundreds of different trees
and plantings and it worked out well. The flowers seemed more numerous,
sturdier and there were no pest problems. I can see the patch is headed for
dividing in a season or two.
