Common Daisy
Bellis perennis
The Daisy has spoon-shaped leaves that create a rosette at the base of the plant. Daisies have preference for short grass habitats. A singular stem emerges from the base, supporting the flower head, which consists not of a single flower but rather a composite of numerous small flowers. These include the yellow disc, formed by the 'disc florets,' and the surrounding white 'ray florets' that resemble petals.
