Leucanthemum Western Star Taurus Rooted Cutting Liner

For best results with Western Star Taurus, plant one rooted plug per 4- or 6-inch container. Use a well-drained soil with a pH of 5.8-6.2, EC of 1.5-2.1 (SME), temperatures of 74-76 daytime and 68-70 nighttime, and low feed (125-175 ppm N). This facultative long-day plant requires daylight extension to 14 hours at 4,000-6,000 fc. Use a B-Nine spray to control growth or a Bonzi drench for holding. This plant doesn't require pinching, bulking, or vernalization. Watch for aphids, thrips, and botrytis. 

White flowers with yellow centers bloom from spring through summer.

This plant doesn't require pinching.

Space containers for adequate airflow and sunlight penetration around the base and foliage of each plant.

Use a spray of B-Nine at 2,500 ppm to control growth. Hold by applying a Bonzi drench at 2-3 ppm at bud initiation.

You may see aphids and thrips.

This plant isn't prone to disease but watch for botrytis during cool, humid weather. Provide good airflow in your greenhouse and water at the base of each plant, allowing the soil to dry between waterings. Space containers so sunlight can penetrate to the soil level of each plant.

We recommend planting one rooted liner per 4- or 6-inch container or three per 10-inch container. Use a well-drained soil and completely bury the ellepot in the center or evenly spaced in the container. Six-inch pots finish in 10-12 weeks.
