Having large 3" single white flowers with a beautiful yellow center makes this Shasta Daisy pop! Tight growth habit makes a beautiful bouquet like perennial maxing out around 18" – 24" depending on you growing zone.
Flowers bloom as early as April in southern Alabama. However, in Norther climates blooms arrive into May and June. Daisy May performs well from zone 5 to 9 and will bloom from spring into fall with a little deadheading of spent blooms. This helps keep the plant well shaped and re-blooming way into fall.
Daisy May will tolerate an assortment of soils, but we recommend a well-draining soil media to keep roots from getting waterlogged. This particular Daisy can go a little dry between watering, which make maintenance easy on the gardener.
As a member of the "Amazing Daisies collection from Prover Winners, much effort has been dedicated to the breeding of this perennial plant. Daisy May boast of a few outstanding plant awards too! University of Georgia Plants of Distinction and University of Georgia Plants of Distinction – 2010 and Erie Basin Marina Top Performer in 2013. Whether planting in the garden or container for patios or decks this Daisy will not disappoint.
