NEW, IMPROVED 
Esther Read Daisy 
The Free-est Blooming, Finest, Hardiest, Large Double Shasta Daisy. 
Offered by Inter-State For the First Time, Spring, 1956 
M 267 Improved Esther Read Shasta Daisy—For many years we 
have been searching for a double Shasta Daisy that would stand our 
winters. They would be magnificent the first summer but the next 
spring they were dead. But here is one, Improved Esther Read, which 
has proven rugged enough to withstand our winter weather. As you 
can see from the photograph, the flowers are simply marvelous. Large, 
3 to 3/4 inches across, fully double, snow-white with a golden touch 
in the center. They commence blooming in early summer and con- 
tinue right up into fall. The flowers come singly on long stems, fine 
for cutting. Each flower lasts a long time in the garden and also when 
cut. It is such a strong grower and free-bloomer, that you will get 
many bouquets THIS VERY FIRST SUMMER. And next summer 
a great deal more. In fact, it is such a vigorous grower that you can 
divide it after 2 or 3 years and either increase your own planting or 
give to neighbors. They will be most happy to get them. We have 
this spring only 10,000 plants so we suggest ordering early. Selected 
field-grown plants.
