Leucanthemum x superbum ‘Snowcap’ is a semi-evergreen to deciduous, herbaceous perennial with a clumping, mounded, upright habit and featuring dark green, leathery, coarsely-toothed leaves and flowers with pure white rays and a golden center disk. While deciduous in cold temperatures, it will die back in milder climates, but leave a low growing rosette of green basal leaves. Uses include edging, mass plantings, container. Excellent in intermountain landscapes. Tolerant of seacoast conditions. Medium irrigation when installed and acclimating; low once established. Thrives in average, moist, well-drained soil; winter wetness or standing water will causes crown rot. Best in full sun; it only tolerates light afternoon shade in hot climates. Deer-resistant. Fire-resistant. Cold hardy to -25°F.
