Common Name:
Shaggy Shasta Daisy
Description:
Leucanthemum × superbum ‘Shaggy’ is a striking perennial Shasta Daisy variety admired for its large, fully double white blooms with finely fringed petals surrounding golden-yellow centres. Flowering prolifically from late spring through summer, this elegant cultivar brings brightness and texture to cottage gardens, mixed borders, and decorative containers. The shaggy-style flowers create a soft, fluffy appearance that contrasts beautifully against the plant’s deep green foliage. Well-suited to Melbourne’s climate, ‘Shaggy’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, rewarding gardeners with reliable flowering and excellent garden performance year after year. Its sturdy stems make it ideal for cut flower arrangements, while regular deadheading encourages continuous blooms throughout the warmer months. This hardy perennial is drought tolerant once established and attracts beneficial pollinators including bees and butterflies.
