Leucanthemum × superbum ‘Wirral Supreme’ Description

Leucanthemum × superbum ‘Wirral Supreme’ is a vigorous Shasta daisy producing large, fully double white flowers with densely layered petals and small creamy centres. Upright stems generally reach around 70 to 90cm above dark green foliage, giving the plant enough height for the middle of a mixed or cottage border. Flowering occurs through summer and the blooms are useful for cutting. Grow in full sun in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil. Taller stems may appreciate support in exposed positions or after heavy Irish summer rain. Deadhead regularly to prolong the display and cut old flowering stems back when finished. Divide mature clumps every few years in spring or autumn to maintain vigour and prevent congestion.
