Like the beautifully intricate creations of arachnids, 'Spun Silk' brings a wild new look to the classic Shasta Daisy. Narrow petals with fringed edges create the "spider" look, with the 4½" graceful white flowers topping a medium-sized habit. The perfect choice for bringing new and interesting texture to the garden. 'Spun Silk' requires vernalization to bloom; we recommend 6-8 weeks minimum.
Shasta Daisies are all-time favorites for the perennial border. The cheery flowers begin to appear in early summer and continue on for several months if faithfully deadheaded. Shastas mix so effortlessly with other perennials that no garden should be without them!
