Leucanthemum Carpet Angel® Shasta Daisy (2023)

The name is fitting for this ground-cover Shasta daisy that grows 6 inches tall but 20 inches wide and is covered with giant blossoms. Its profuse branching results in more flowering stems. Deadheading spent flowers will prolong the show throughout the season. Full sun; 6 inches tall spreading to 20 inches wide.

Rudbeckia

‘American Goldrush’ (2020)

This gorgeous black-eyed Susan has probably appeared in some of your projects already. Bright golden-yellow flowers with dark centers and arching petals make it a great addition to a sunloving border. It’s a compact, domeshaped plant with narrow hairy foliage that resists Septoria leaf spot. Nonstop bloom from July to September, with some color up until frost, this cultivar is shorter in height compared to existing varieties. Full sun; 18 inches to 2 feet tall and wide.
