Leucanthemum is a genus of about 70 flowering plants from the sunflower family (Asteraceae).
These clumped rhizomatous perennials, were split from the genus Chrysanthemum, because they are not aromatic and their leaves lack grayish-white hairs.
PLANTING: Set plants 18 inches apart, in full sun to part shade. Very easy to grow and adaptable to most soil types, preferably in rich, well-drained soil. Good drainage is essential; plants may rot in too wet a soil. For best effect, plant in groups. MAINTENANCE: Deadhead throughout the flowering season, cutting the flower stems to the ground. A winter mulch is beneficial.
