A variable, but nonetheless charming native species, Leucanthemum vulgare is ideal for quickly colonising areas of bare earth, and can often be found growing in bold swathes on grassy banks or roadside verges, where its daisy-like flowers will attract bees and other pollinating insects in late spring and early summer.

Ox-eye daisy is perfect for naturalising in a sunny wildflower meadow, and if deadheaded after the initial flowers have faded, it may go on to produce a second flush later in the season.
