Daisy, Crazy

Leucanthemum × superbum  

A welcomed variation on the Shasta Daisy, 'Crazy' Daisy is easy to grow from seed, drought tolerant, and has a long bloom period (about 2 months under optimal conditions).  The petal shapes are intriguing with everything in between flat to quilled, and single to fully double petals.  20% of blooms have closed centers.  Some individual plants are reminiscent of mums with their quilled, doubled, and varying lengths of petals.  Long lived and easy to divide.  A perennial in zones 5-9. This garden mainstay has edible leaves that can be added to late Spring salads.
