This is a great plant, hybridized from a European wildflower. Its not invasive like our common daisy, and has larger flowers. Whats more, the flowers are classic white daisies, and look great both in more formal perennial displays and in informal wildflower gardens.

Comments about American Meadows Shasta Daisy Alaska - Plant:

These daisies did not disappoint. Covered with white flowers and came back with more after many cuttings. I just love white daisies in a deep blue vase - so clean and fresh-looking.
I dug them up to re-postion them in the bed last fall, and this spring they are full and lush, about twice the size of the oringinal planting. I look forward to endless bunches of blooms this summer.
