HASTA DAISIES, the best easy-to-grow plants for achiev- 
ing the increasingly popular white effect in spring and 
summer gardens. Your plantings will take on a new charm 
with ‘‘dressed-in-white’’ areas of these MODERN Shasta 
Daisies developed from Burbank’s world-famous original. 
Here are Shastas for a summer snowbank effect, for a taller 
background, for a prim-flowered mass effect, for a dainty airy 
tone, and a fully double everblooming variety for borders. 
Each type is generously prolific and gives abundant display 
and ample cut-flowers. 
SNOWBANK 
You create an all-summer effect of a bank of snow with this important new 
single-flowered white Shasta. Large 4-in. flowers with waxy, snow-white 
petals and small, clean yellow centers. Blooms all summer, but most profusely 
in early summer and in August. Height, 15 to 18 in. Excellent for beds and 
borders—see picture at top of page. 
45c each; 3 for $1.25; 12 for $4.50
