A pure and beautiful white flower that takes 3 years to pursue.

shastadaisy Miranda

Hello. I am Miranda, Shasta Daisy Fairy. The name Shasta comes from Mt. Shasta in California, USA, where this flower was hybridized. It is a horticultural chrysanthemum subspecies that is said to have been used for crossbreeding with the Japanese hyacinth, and its long petals give a cool impression. Unlike chrysanthemums or daisies, the appearance of these large white flowers blooming creates a refreshing space like a clear stream. It is strong against the cold of winter, and it is wonderful that it surrounds the garden with green even in the middle of winter. It’s a long run that takes 3 years to flower, but it’s worth spending a long time together.

    Until last year, the shasta daisy had grown so quickly that it was astonishing. She takes a long time to build up her roots and build up her strength.The Shasta Daisy barely changes its appearance, so I’ll be watching her monthly from now on.

    A lot of seeds are made, and I’m going to connect it to the next generation. Even so, three years went by in a blink of an eye.

Shasta daisy cultivation point

It has a high germination rate, is strong and has excellent cold resistance. It does not require much work, but it takes a considerable number of days from seed planting to flowering. In the case of autumn planting, flowering will be as early as June of the year after next. Be patient and patient. The green leaves grow thick even in the middle of winter, so you can rely on it when you want greenery in your winter garden, which tends to get lonely.
