Description
Go wild with swathes of Shasta daisies! Extra petals give Leucanthemum 'Wirral Supreme' an extra boost of flower power, and a generous clump of these will see you through summer with their relaxed meadow vibe. Each of these gorgeously ruffled blooms sit on stems which can grow up to 1.5m tall once established. As this hardy perennial gradually spreads to form a packed-out patch, over time you’ll find you’ve created a blissful haze of billowing daisy-like blooms which is so enchantingly immersive.
Not only is easy, reliable and hardy Leucanthemum 'Wirral Supreme' a joy to grow and have in the garden, but it’s a pleasure to pick for country-themed arrangements too. For best results, plant a few in a group to get a good patch started. This perennial gradually grows into a clump which will each year produce more flowering stems, so you’ll have some to pick and plenty to leave for the bees and butterflies to enjoy. Leucanthemum × superbum 'Wirral Supreme' is a beautifully informal plant to include in a cottage garden, white garden or wild garden.

Useful information
-
Soak your Leucanthemum 'Wirral Supreme' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting.
Plant your "Shasta daisy" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost in spring and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors.
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed.
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
