100 Seeds Oxeye Daisy Leucanthemum vulgare Perennial Wildflower
Oxeye Daisy is a classic perennial wildflower grown from Leucanthemum vulgare seeds. It is valued for its cheerful white petals surrounding bright yellow centers, blooming through summer and returning each year in suitable climates. Its rhizomatous, clump-forming habit makes it a dependable choice for naturalistic plantings and meadow-style gardens.
Use Oxeye Daisy in wildflower meadows, cottage gardens, borders, and pollinator-friendly landscapes. The flowers are long-lasting when cut for arrangements, and the plants tolerate a range of soils once established. Sow seeds in a prepared bed or container, keep the surface evenly moist, and thin or transplant seedlings for good air circulation.
