Leucanthemum x superbum 'Becky' is a tall-growing shasta daisy, bearing single daisies with white petals and a yellow centre. Being single, the flowers are attractive to pollinators such as bees and butterflies, but the blooms are also perfect for cutting. Flowering from summer to mid-autumn, it’s perfect for adding a late splash of colour to a mixed herbaceous border.
Grow Leucanthemum x superbum 'Becky’ in moist but well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering and cut back completely in late-autumn.
Bear in mind that all leucanthemums can be toxic to dogs and cats if ingested, but symptoms are usually mild.
