DESCRIPTION
Broadway Lights™ is a new variety of Shasta daisy. Such an elegant perennial is so easy to combine with almost any other flowering perennials that it should find its place in every garden. This variety has large flowers of three colours – it opens rich yellow and changes to soft butter yellow, fading to creamy white or almost white. This means that this plant is constantly covered with three different colours.
Blooming time is end spring to early summer or late spring to mid summer – upon location. Prompt deadheading will encourage second flowering in late summer. The centre is always orange. Lance-shaped leaves are deep green, stalkless, slightly toothed at margins. The plant is compact and not invasive.
It is widely soil adaptable provided the soil is well-drained. Fully hardy to min. -30°C. Broadway Lights™ is a registered trademark, further propagation is prohibited.
