A Shasta daisy to reign supreme over all others, with a corona of rich gold that sits on fully double, frilly yellow petals that whiten as they age for a majestic ombré effect. A wonderfully compact, mounded plant with enough height and scale to really hold its own in a mixed border. An herbaceous perennial. A Monrovia Exclusive.
