Description
Leucanthemum x superbum 'Gruppenstolz', has the charming simplicity of large, white flowers with yellow centres. It is a variety of big daisy with a multitude of flowers. This sturdy perennial forms a dense clump of stems and dark leaves, and it blooms all summer long, attracting pollinating insects. A very easy plant to grow, it thrives in full sun or partial shade and adds a distinctly rural touch to your flower beds or bouquets.
The genus Leucanthemum belongs to the aster family. 'Gruppenstolz' is a horticultural hybrid obtained from Leucanthemum x superbum, the well-known big daisy. This variety forms a bushy clump, taller than wide, reaching a height of about 70 cm (28in) and spreading up to 60 cm (24in), with a moderately fast growth rate. It develops an opulent tuft of numerous leafy, deciduous stems from a large basal rosette. The flowering period is from July to October, with large solitary heads measuring 11 cm (4in) in diameter. The white ligulate florets are thin and flat, arranged in a single crown around a yellow centre. The leaves are dark green, simple, and alternate. They are lanceolate with regularly toothed edges, and almost fleshy. The leaf surface is glabrous. The plant reaches full maturity in five years and can live for many years.
This summer daisy, perfect for making bouquets, will be ideal in a rustic flower bed or in a natural garden, in a flower meadow beneath fruit trees or at the back of the garden. While we're not talking about extravagant colours here, we should emphasize instead the consistancy, robustness, and many flowers of these "simple" plants that will bring real structure to flowerbeds. Pair its flowers with echinaceas, mix it with asters, autumn daisies, peonies, blue lupins, or campanulas. Be creative with this flower, in the garden or in a vase in the house, to produce a delightful and unique display.

To achieve good drainage, add a little loamy sand to the planting substrate. This plant does not have any particular requirement for soil pH. It will thrive in a sunny position but also tolerates semi-shade. It can withstand temperatures down to -29°C (-20.2°F). Remove dead foliage in spring. This daisy may be attacked by aphids, snails, and may develop foliar spots.

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 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).
