Western Star™ Yellow is a compact-medium, upright Shasta daisy with yellow-gold flowers. Syngenta’s current Americas plant page lists product 70097017 as Western Star™ Capricorn, the same product code as this Yellow selection; it specifies full sun, pollinator-friendly flowers, mid-spring through summer bloom, a mature size of 14–20 inches high by 18–24 inches wide, and hardiness zones 4a–9a.

## Garden use
Plant this compact perennial in a sunny mixed border or container. Syngenta recommends full sun for this selection. The Royal Horticultural Society notes that perennial leucanthemums can tolerate light shade and prefer soil that drains freely.

## Maintenance
Deadhead faded flower heads to keep the display tidy. Divide established clumps in spring every two or three years to maintain vigor and flowering. Water new divisions while they establish, then adjust irrigation to local rainfall and drainage.
