Leucanthemum x superbum

Shasta Daisies are very drought tolerant and will grow with very limited water. At our nursery we have a clump in partial shade that only gets water about once per month or less and still looks healthy and blooms during summers of 100+ degrees. These are ideal plants for borders and flower beds, but if you have the space they are fantastic for planting to naturalize in a field of different colored flowers. One of the best uses we've ever seen of Shasta Daisy is in a garden in Northern Oregon where these are planted about ten feet deep against both sides of a three foot wide path winding through a clearing with Japanese Maples on the edges. It creates a wonderful sense of walking through a dense field of flowers in the mountains, and if you have the space we would highly recommend planting in a similar fashion.
