Crazy for Daisy

Banana Cream

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
