Shasta daisies (5/5)

List item
Approved

I’m including this picture simply because this was the last thing I planted this year. I planted these Shasta daisies a couple of weeks ago. The temperatures were hot and the plants looked very sick for a while, to the point where I wasn’t sure that they’d pull out. Clearly, they did.

Shasta daisies are perennials so these should come up again next year. To the left of the daisies are marigolds that haven’t yet bloomed. To the right are pansies/violets/Johnny-jump-ups. To the top are orange pansies, pink snapdragons, and a salmon snapdragon. The white of the daisies provides a good counterpoint.

The Shasta daisies are only about six inches tall this year, but when they are full height, they should be over two feet tall and very noticeable.
