We have a tried few Leucanthemums, but like for you they seem very difficult to get them to establish. Molluscs play havoc with them.

They are beautiful little flowers!
To my amazement, I see a Leucanthemum just about to flower in my garden. I also find them very difficult to establish - Ive lost lots of them over the years, but still buy them!
My favourite is LEUCANTHEMUM x superbum 'Wirral Supreme'. Have you grown it?

Now what we lose to molluscs are Leucanthemums and Heleniums. Neither of those survive for any length of time, no matter what we do.

I love your Alstroemerias. I have them in the cut flower garden area, and they get devoured by the slugs as soon as they start to shoot.
Any tips for growing these (apart from Slug Pellets!)
