Description
Daisies are with us from the earliest childhood memories of sumer days, sunny fields, and nodding white flowers that will foretell if "He loves me, he loves me not". The range of these beautiful wildflowers is just about everywhere - simple:>).
Daisies are actually an introduced species that is considered naturalized. As much as we love them, they are so persistent that some areas call them "noxious weeds" as they crowd out native plants. In spite of any bad press, they remain one of the most beloved wildflowers in the USA and Canada.
This picture was taken in Green Lane, Pennsylvania, USA, on May 11, 2012.
