Amazing Daisies® Banana Cream II Shasta Daisy Care
This beautiful perennial is hardy in zones 5-9. In cooler climates, this does best in full sun, however it will tolerate partial sun. In warmer climates, partial shade is recommended to keep from scorching the flowers and foliage alike. Plant this in average or fertile soil for best results. Soil pH should be neutral or slightly acidic. To ensure it survives wintery conditions, make certain that the soil drains sufficiently to keep the roots from rotting.
Pruning is not necessary, however this perennial benefits from deadheading spent blooms. If the flower buds are sporadic and you want a more consistent bloom experience early in the season, it is recommended to pinch off the few early buds and allow time for more flower buds to grow.
Amazing Daisies® Banana Cream II Shasta Daisy Spacing
In most planting applications, the spacing is recommended to be about 20”-22” on center. Allow a minimum of 16”-18” on center for container gardening. If planting closer together, keep an eye on new growth and ensure that this does not become overcrowded with neighboring plants.
