Leucanthemum x superbum 'Real Dream'
Leucanthemum x superbum 'Real Dream'
Large flowers with three layers of greenish-yellow petals surrounding a large gold centre. Petals gradually fade to white as the flower matures. Excellent for cutting. Removing faded flowers will greatly increase the bloom time. Divide plants in the spring every 2 to 3 years to maintain vigour. Shasta Daisy is a well-behaved garden hybrid.

Flowering Season
From Early Spring TO Late Autumn
The yellow-centered, pure-white blooms create a cheerful statement both in the garden and cut for bouquets. White daisy-like flowers up to 1.5 inch across appear from early spring to late autumn.
Planting
From Late Autumn TO Early Spring
Plant in late autumn or early spring in well drained, gritty soil in a sunny position. If the soil is too rich, the plant will lose its compact habit.
