Use it to edge a sunny path or bed, tuck it in at the front of a border, or plant it in pots and window boxes where a regular Shasta would be too big. A row of them makes a crisp white ribbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompanion Plants:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eScabiosa 'Butterfly Blue'\u003c\/em\u003e sits at a similar 30 to 45 cm and flowers blue from May to October, a sweet match for small white daisies. Behind them, \u003cem\u003eGaura 'Monarch Pink'\u003c\/em\u003e adds airy pink flowers at 45 to 60 cm from June to September. For early height, tuck in \u003cem\u003eAllium atropurpureum\u003c\/em\u003e, whose purple heads rise to 60 to 75 cm in May and June. Give this little group full sun and a well-drained spot at the front of the border.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant in full sun in average, well-drained soil. It won't tolerate soggy ground, so avoid low spots, and loosen heavy clay with compost or grit. Water deeply through the first season, then water during dry spells. Deadheading isn't necessary, because new buds open on top of spent flowers. A light shear after the main flush keeps the mound tidy. Cut back the old foliage in late fall or early spring. Like most Shasta daisies, it stays more vigorous if divided every few years in spring. In colder gardens, a well-drained site matters more than anything for winter survival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Shasta daisy was created by American breeder Luther Burbank, who crossed several daisy species in California and named the result after snowcapped Mount Shasta. 'Sugar Bowl' is a recent dwarf selection offered by Terra Nova Nurseries in Oregon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinal Thoughts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perfect for the front edge or a sunny pot. One spoonful is never enough, so plant three.
