A pretty ruff of long, white, slightly reflexed petals surround a central disc of densely packed, short petals, lemon coloured at the centre. One of the best double-flowered varieties, this tall, sprightly shasta daisy will flower throughout the summer and coolness and freshness to a summer border. It makes an excellent cut flower, too.
