Very short lifespan as far as I'm concerned: only one out of the three plants still remaining.

Description
The Leucanthemum superbum 'Wirral Supreme' or garden daisy is a tall herbaceous perennial with double collarettes of snowy white ligules and a sun-yellow heart. The size of the inflorescence is exceptional.
The Leucanthemum superbum is an Asteraceae native to Europe. The 'Wirral Supreme' variety is a horticultural selection that offers double flowering between August and September, with an exceptional size (between 7 and 10 cm (3 and 4in) in diameter). The heads are composed of a first and a second collar of snowy white florets around a sun-yellow heart. The ligules of the second, more central collar are shorter than those of the first, giving a slightly fluffy and raised appearance to this lovely late summer daisy. The glossy green deciduous leaves are alternate, lanceolate, and deeply dentate. The habit is very bushy, upright, but not heavily branched.
This plant thrives in neutral, moist soil, but can tolerate slightly acidic or alkaline soils. It is a very beautiful variety with double flowers that brings innocence and freshness to summer flower beds. It will be delightful in the company of silver candles, sanguisorbas, and purple astilbes in colourful masses in a country garden or sporadically in a meadow. Additionally, it makes excellent cut flowers with a long-lasting beauty. Divide the plants in early spring or late summer. Protect young plants from slugs and snails. Cut back faded stems in autumn.

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.
