THE LATEST FLORAL VITONDER 



^^SHASTA DAISIES." 



{Chrysanthemtcm Leucanthemuin 

 Hybridtim.') 



Mr. BuRBANK. the Wizard of 

 Horticulture, and originator of this 

 plant says: 



'• During- the past few years when 

 'Shasta Daisies' were being bred 

 and educated up to their present 

 state more admiration has been 

 bestowed upon them by visitors 

 than upon any other flowering 

 plant growing on my grounds, and 

 with good reason, for to day no 

 other flower can compare in extent 

 of usefulness. Their first qualifica- 

 tion is hardiness. They can be 

 grown out of doors by everj^body 

 where it is not cold enough to kill 

 oak trees. Second, they are peren- 

 nial, blooming better and more 

 abundantly each season. Third, 

 they can be multiplied rapidly by 

 simple division and they are not 

 particular as to soil. Fourth, they 

 bloom for several months— in Cali- 

 fornia nearly all the year. Fifth, 

 the flowers are extremely large 

 and graceful -averaging about a 

 foot, often more— in circumference, 

 with three or more rows of petals 

 of the purest glistening whiteness, 

 on single, strong, stiff, wiry stems, 

 nearly two feet in length. This 

 peculiar grace and remarkable 

 whiteness cannot, of course, be 

 shown on paper.
