How to grow
Good pest and disease resistance
Leucanthemums have few problems with pests and diseases. It can, however, have issues with Aphids. To combat aphids you can pick away the bugs with your hands and also spray the infested areas with soapy water.MORE
Water often in summer
During hot and prolonged dry periods, as well as the plant's first year, it is important to ensure that the ground is kept consistently moist. This can require watering several times a week or perhaps even daily during very hot spells. Once the plant has established itself it will become more drought tolerant but still the ground should not be allowed to dry up too much for too long.
Full sun or partial shade
Ideally, plant somewhere the plant will receive 6-8 hours of direct sunlight every day. Leucanthemum will also do well in partial shade.
Fertile, well-drained soil
Mix in plenty of organic matter such as garden compost into the soil before planting and more every spring. If your soil is particularly clay-heavy and easily becomes waterlogged, add some perlite into the soil to improve drainage.
Feed lightly
Feed with a slow-release general fertiliser in the Spring to improve plant vigour and blooms.

Best plants you will ever get online
I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.
Highly recommended all round
Delivered quickly, perfectly packaged and the tree was in excellent condition. Really healthy and taken to the garden with no problems. Can't recommend highly enough. 5 stars isn't enough!
Satisfied customer
Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.
A really good quality tree
A really good quality tree, delivered on time and very well packaged. But the emailed planting advice and supporting information was what really impressed me. Thoroughly recommended.
Exceptional quality
The quality of the plants was exceptional, unlike ones I have had before from local garden centres. Thank you so much. I will definitely be using you again.
Marvellous!
Marvellous service, great plants and fast delivery. Very useful information on how to care for the plants I bought. Easy to use website that makes it far too easy to overindulge in fabulous plants 😂🌱
