Oxeye Daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare) - Wildlife-Friendly Native (Peat-Free Super Plugs & 9cm Pots)

Oxeye Daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare) is a timeless wildflower and a symbol of summer meadows across Britain. Its large, cheerful daisy heads are instantly recognisable, creating bold sweeps of white and gold that brighten roadsides, fields, and gardens alike.

This species is highly adaptable, thriving in most soils and sunny positions, and is particularly effective in wildflower meadows or grassy borders where it can naturalise into drifts. Its flowering season is long - typically from May until August - ensuring months of colour and nectar.

Ecologically, Oxeye Daisy is invaluable. Its open flowers are accessible to a wide range of insects, attracting bees, hoverflies, beetles, and butterflies. In turn, these pollinators provide food for birds and mammals, making Oxeye Daisy a keystone plant in wildlife-friendly schemes. Its seeds are also eaten by birds in winter, extending its ecological role.

Whether planted as part of a meadow, scattered through borders, or left to self-seed, Oxeye Daisy offers enduring charm and ecological benefit. It is hardy, resilient, and one of the easiest natives to establish.

🪴 Our Oxeye Daisy is grown in peat-free super plugs and 9cm pots, supplied robust and ready to thrive. Once planted, it will spread naturally, offering year after year of summer beauty.
