Hi all,
Despite all the agonizing over shasta daisies last summer,
when I kept hearing the words "prolific bloomer" I decided
to grow some from seed this spring.
Here is the question: which kind were we talking about, and what
recommendations does anyone have?
I have seen seeds for Chrysanthemum x superbum, and Leucanthemum x
superbum, L. maximum x L. lacustre, Asteraceae (?)
...or as Alaska, Queen, King, Little Princess, Snow Lady, Marconi,
Esther Read, Miss Muffett, Northern Lights etc....!
Are all these cultivars (if that is the right word) of
Chrysanthemum x superbum? (if that is the right name)?
And is Ox Eye Daisy the same as Shasta?!
Yikes, all I wanted was a flower.
