FAQs
Are these plants safe for pets?
Leucanthemum varieties are generally considered non-toxic to common household pets, though it is always best to prevent animals from grazing on ornamental plants.
How often should I water the Crazy Daisy?
Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the first growing season. Once established, they are moderately drought-tolerant but perform best with regular hydration.
Do I need to deadhead the flowers?
Deadheading spent blooms can encourage the plant to produce more flowers throughout the season and keeps the display looking tidy.
Can I grow these in containers?
Yes, 'Crazy Daisy' can thrive in large pots provided they have adequate drainage and are kept well-watered.
When is the best time to plant the plugs out?
Plant out once the risk of frost has passed and the plants have grown sufficiently in their pots to have a healthy root system.
Troubleshooting
Plants wilting shortly after planting
Ensure consistent moisture levels and provide temporary shade if the sun is too intense during the establishment phase.
Growth is stunted or slow
Check soil drainage to ensure it is not waterlogged; add organic compost if the soil is too lean or sandy.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Upon receiving your 12 plug plants, pot them on into small containers and grow them in a sheltered spot until they are large enough to be planted out. Ensure the ground is prepared with organic matter to improve moisture retention. Space plants approximately 45cm apart to allow for their mature spread. During the first few weeks after planting, ensure they receive regular water. In late autumn, you may cut back the foliage to encourage healthy growth in the following spring.
