Description

This is a favorite roadside wildflower, growing 1-2' when blooming in May and June. It is a parent of the hybrid shasta daisies, and can be used as good cut flowers, requiring little maintenance in a sunny garden with ordinary garden soil. While making a soothing compliment to a bright colored bed, they are striking when grouped on their own as well. -Holland Wildflower Farm

Water Saving Tip:

Fix leaking sprinklers, valves, and pipes.

One broken spray sprinkler can waste 10 gallons per minute - or 100 gallons in a typical 10 minute watering cycle.
