Here is a great Shasta Daisy. In fact was the Perennial Plant Association's Plant of the Year for 2003. And it's great because; it's beautiful, growing up to 3 feet tall with 4-5 inch flower heads, it flowers from summer to fall if deadheaded occasionally, the flower stalks stand up in hard summer rains, it is great for northern as well as southern gardeners, and the flowers make great cut flowers. Give it full sun and average soil and let this long-lived evergreen perennial brighten up your garden. Remember, white and gray are two colors that best bridge two opposing colors. Cat# 1333
