Hmm, that doesn't look like a shasta daisy that I know, they're white
around here.....
Originally Shasta was a hybrid created by Luther Burbank (Chrysanthemum
maximum x C. leucanthemum) it became very popular but because it didn't
come true from seed gradually changed and became a class of Daisies that
were extensively hybridized and there are now many forms, large and
small, single and double and though I have only seen white, the pictures
posted look like Shastas.
