Leucanthemum x superbum 'Snowdrift,' commonly known as Double Shasta Daisy, is a hardy perennial featuring fully double, snow-white flowers with frilly, layered petals and a bright yellow center. The blooms sit atop sturdy, upright stems and are complemented by glossy, dark green, lance-shaped leaves. This elegant plant is perfect for adding a classic, clean look to borders, cottage gardens, and floral arrangements.
Leucanthemum x superbum 'Snowdrift' thrives in well-drained, moderately fertile soils and requires consistent moisture during the growing season. It attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies and is deer- and rabbit-resistant. Deadheading spent flowers encourages prolonged blooming, and cutting back the plant after flowering can promote a tidier appearance and fresh foliage. It pairs beautifully with other sun-loving perennials like rudbeckia, echinacea, and salvia for a bright and cheerful garden display.
