Some years ago I bought some 'Darling Daisy' Shasta daisy plants from the local nursery, and put them into my garden. They turned out to be a GREAT garden plant; they never needed staking or support, and they were in bloom from spring well into fall.
Alas, a combination of irrigation issues and gophers (over a succession of years, some of which I was sidelined with surgeries and recovery) did for the daisies.
I have been trying to reacquire them ever since, but the local nurseries no longer carry them (and cannot special order them), and I can't seem to find them for sale online, either.
Does anyone have a source for these? I would even consider seeds if anyone here grows it (yes, I know that the seeds won't come true, but they might produce something worthwhile).
Barring that, does anyone have any recommendations for a good dwarf Shasta daisy (no staking, long bloom time) which is commercially available and can be shipped to CA? I have seen various dwarf cultivars available online, but I really don't have a clue as to which ones will produce the very long bloom season that I want.
Thanks for any help.
