Description
Leucanthemum x superbum 'Alaska' is an excellent variety of Oxeye Daisy, which is vigorous and floriferous. It has simple flowers with white petals around a yellow centre. This perennial blooms all summer in ordinary, but damp soil. A very easy plant to grow, in sun or partial shade, it will bring a decidedly rustic touch to your borders or bouquets.
Leucanthemum 'Alaska' belongs to the Asteraceae family. It is a horticultural hybrid related to the Oxeye Daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare), whose origin is believed to be a cross-breeding between a Pyrenean species and a Portuguese species. 'Alaska' measures approximately 90 cm (35in) in height when in bloom and spreads over 60 cm (24in), its growth is moderately fast. It forms an opulent clump with shiny green foliage. This foliage partially persists in winter, in the form of rosettes at ground level. Flowering renews from July to September. It takes the form of large solitary heads measuring 5 to 7 cm (2 to 3in) in diameter, with white ligulate (petal) flowers around a yellow centre. The leaves are lanceolate with regularly toothed edges. Their surface is glabrous. The plant reaches full maturity in five years.
In the world of 'daisies' that we believe we know, there are flower forms that are worth seeing... we are not talking about extravagant colours here, but more the detail and the structure of the flowers that will truly bring originality to the garden. 'Leucanthemum 'Alaska', so suitable for bouquet arrangements, will be perfect in a border or as a specimen. Accompany its flowering with that of cosmos, combine it with peonies, blue lupins, bellflowers, gaillardias and red hot pokers. You will create a scene that is reminiscent of our grandmothers' gardens.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
