Did you know that there are several varieties of Shasta daisies? One of my favorite varieties is called banana cream. I stumbled upon this flower at the Jensen-Olson Arboretum in Juneau Alaska. The petals are lemon colored florets that surround a densely packed solid yellow center. It is a magnificent perennial flower that performs well in zones 5-9 and blooms during the summer months. The flowers I saw were at their maximum height of about 18 inches. They are a breeze to grow as they adapt well to both full sun and partial shade conditions. Cheers
