Leucanthemum × superbum ‘Banana Cream’

‘Banana Cream’ is a bright lemon-yellow shasta daisy that really lifts a sunny border. Large semi-double flowers, 10 to 12cm across, open bright lemon-yellow over a dark green clump of disease-resistant foliage, and the rays age through pale yellow to creamy white, giving several shades on the plant at once.

Compact at around 40 to 45cm tall and 60cm wide, good and sturdy. Flowers profusely from late spring through summer with deadheading.

Plant in full sun in well-drained soil. Deadhead regularly to prolong flowering and divide clumps every two or three years to maintain vigour.

A firm favourite for a sunny perennial border, a cut-flower patch, or a container on a patio.
