Leucanthemum x superbum ‘Old Court’ is a quirky, spirited, ornamental, spidery double that takes wild to a whole new level. It’s one of my favourite flowers at any British flower show.

Butterflies and bees like it, it mixes wonderfully with other flowering perennials and would be a good, home-grown cut flower.

I’m using the name from the plant labels on the Holden Clough Nurseries stand at RHS Hampton Court Flower Show, but you’ll find a good number of synonyms listed online which may or may not be the same plant, including:
Old Court Shasta Daisy
Leucanthemum x superbum ‘Beauté Nivelloise’
Chrysanthemum maximum ‘Beauté Nivelloise’

As I may have mentioned before, this flower makes my hair seem firmly under control. Well, assuming it’s not windy outside!

It looks like shredded coconut.
But what’s the centre? Egg custard perhaps?
Or something lemony.
