Shasta Daisies for the tropic?

Hi, Have anyone grown shasta daisies in tropical zone 11 ?

I've seen shasta daisies in the tropics but I'm not sure what type of shasta daisy they are.

And yes, they were shasta daisies... not gerbera daisies ... I can tell they were shasta daisy or a close relative because of the leaves.

Hope you can help me :)

There's a lovely row of shasta daisies fronting Baldwin Avenue in Makawao. Little further up the mountain so temps stay cool but still zone 11. Probably depends on what your heat zone is.
