Luther Burbank had a great fondness for the wild daisies that grew under the elm in front of his family home in Massachusetts. These oxeye daisies had naturalized throughout New England, having been introduced accidentally from England by the Pilgrims. He developed the beautiful large white daisy he named after the lovely snow-covered Mount Shasta in Northern California. He finally introduced his Shasta Daisy hybrids in 1901. 1904, Burbank introduced the first named varieties of Shasta Daisy including ‘Alaska’, ‘California’ and ‘Westralia’. They bear all-white daisy petals, yellow button and glossy, dark green leaves.
