Shasta Daisy 'Real Neat'

‘Real Neat’ is a compact, clump-forming Shasta daisy in the Realflor Compact Series. Its dark green foliage supports double white flowers with fluted, horizontal petals around bright yellow centers, blooming from summer into autumn. The [RHS plant profile](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/322093/leucanthemum-%C3%97-superbum-real-neat-realflor-compact-series/details) describes a plant to about 50 cm tall, with a bushy habit and suitability for borders and cut flowers. ## Growing notes Grow in full sun or light shade in moderately fertile soil that stays moist but drains well. The RHS gives a broad mature spread range, so allow room for the clump to widen rather than crowding it. Use Real Neat at the front or middle of a sunny border, where its double flowers can mingle with grasses and other summer perennials. Avoid deep shade and permanently wet soil. ## Maintenance Remove faded flower stems after flowering to keep the planting tidy. Divide an established clump when it becomes congested, replanting divisions promptly. Watch for aphids and slugs, which can affect Leucanthemum foliage and flowers.
