Common daisy (Bellis perennis)
Daisy is a member of the Asteraceae family and flowers for much of the year. The upturned flower heads look like single flowers, but actually consist of a number of small, tightly packed individual flowers or 'florets'. Daisies are frequently used by children to make daisy chains. Geoffrey Chaucer, often referred to as the Father of English literature and widely considered to be the greatest English poet of the Middle Ages, described the plant as the 'day’s eye'.
