When to Divide and Transplant Shasta Daisies for Maximum Vigor

Early spring is the ideal time to divide Shasta daisies (Leucanthemum x superbum), but these tough perennials tolerate moving almost any time except hot, dry midsummer. Divide every few years to maintain vigor—especially when the clump center dies out.

Dig the entire clump, slice through with a sharp spade, and ensure each division has at least one healthy shoot with roots. Replant and water well.
