A dwarf cultivar bred in 1958 by J Groen in Holland.

Has pure white, single flowers with a bright yellow disc floret. Very showy and good for mid border plantings. Best of all, because it's a dwarf, it need no staking.

Needs a deep, fertile soil in full sun.

When the first frosts have blackened the stems cut them off, lift and store the tubers upside down for a couple of weeks then store in a dark, frost free place. Some people give them a good dusting of fungicide powder just in case.
