#ProPlantTips for Care:
Shasta Daisy needs full sun for the most blooms and the best vigor. Plant in any kind of enriched, organic well-drained soil with moderate, but regular moisture access. Provide 3-4 inches of mulch around the crown over the root system, but not piled on the crown or you may choke out the growth. Darling Daisy™ must be deadheaded for the best-continuous bloom, and prune the mound back clean in fall as soon as the foliage turns yellow. Divide the clumps every few years to maintain vigorous growth.
- Best in Full Sun
- Moderate Regular Moisture & Appreciates Mulched Beds
- Dislikes Soggy Winter Soil
- Any Type of Well-Drained Organic Soil
- Deadhead For Rebloom & Prune Late Autumn
