Common name: English Daisy, Lawn Daisy, Bruisewort

English Daisy is a common European species of daisy familiar to children as a favourite flower for picking, and the raw material for daisy-chains. It is not affected by mowing and is therefore often considered a weed on lawns, though many also value the appearance of the flowers. Most cultivars have pompon like, fully double flowers in shades of white, pink or red.
