Cream Puff Shasta Daisy

Cream Puff is a compact Shasta daisy selected for its rounded habit and soft cream flowers that open from yellow buds. It grows about 14–16 inches tall and 26–28 inches wide, making a low, spreading mound for sunny borders, patio containers, and the front of a perennial bed. The [Walters Gardens variety profile](https://www.waltersgardens.com/variety.php?ID=LEUCP) lists zones 5–9 and notes early-summer flowering with a possible late-season rebloom after deadheading. ## Growing notes Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Provide regular moisture while the root system establishes, then water when the soil begins to dry; avoid soggy winter conditions. This compact cultivar can soften bed edges or fill a broad space between taller perennials. Its flowers also work in seasonal arrangements and attract visiting bees and butterflies. ## Maintenance Remove faded flower stems to keep the mound neat and encourage further flowering. Leave healthy foliage in place through the growing season, then cut it back after it declines. Check the crown in spring and divide only when a mature clump becomes congested.
