watering

Shasta daisy (Leucanthemum superbum 'Beaute Nivelloise') should be watered once a week with about 1 inch of water. Make sure the soil is evenly moist but not soggy. Avoid over-watering, which can cause root rot. If the temperature is especially hot and dry, you may need to increase your watering to twice a week. During the winter months, you can reduce your watering to every 2 weeks. Avoid getting the foliage wet, as this can cause fungal diseases and rust. If you can, water at the base of the plant or use a drip system.

sunlight

Shasta daisy, (Leucanthemum superbum 'Beaute Nivelloise'), thrives in full sun. This plant species requires 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day to stay healthy and produce vibrant blooms. Depending on the season, sunlight should be provided for 8-12 hours per day for optimal growth. Additionally, Shasta daisy prefers partial shade in areas with extreme heat or too much direct sunlight. In this situation, provide 4-6 hours of direct sunlight and 4-8 hours of indirect sunlight per day.

pruning

Shasta daisy (Leucanthemum superbum 'Beaute Nivelloise') should be lightly pruned in early spring after the threat of frost has passed. This pruning should occur once the plant is between 3 and 5 years old. This will help keep the plant looking nice and maintain a tidy appearance. When pruning, start by removing any damaged, dead, or diseased branches. Also cut away any branches that are growing in an awkward direction. After that, it’s a good idea to remove some of the oldest blooms. This will help encourage new and more vibrant blooms the next season. Finally, shape the plant by pruning back the longer and weaker-looking branches. This will encourage more compact and uniform growth.
