Fully 4 inches wide, these white blooms havve a charming have a pompon shape. Butterflies study these petals closely, visiting frequently to add their bright color to the show. The flowers are also magnificent for cutting, of course. The blooms are held on strong, supple stems that hold up well after cutting.
Like most Shastas, 'Real Snowball' has very dark green foliage and excellent branching. Unlike most older varieties, it also boasts a rounded, very full habit, almost like a Chrysanthemum. Very showy! The flowers begin in early summer in most climates, opening from big, rounded buds that are themselves beautiful. With any luck, the flower show continues all season!
Give 'Real Snowball' well-drained, organically enriched soil in full sun. This is not a plant that loves poor soil and rough conditions -- pamper it, and it will repay you richly, year after year!
