Fun Daisy Facts:
Daisies symbolize purity, innocence, new beginnings, joy, and cheerfulness—making them a thoughtful gift for new moms.
Closely related to artichokes, daisies are surprisingly rich in vitamin C.
They grow worldwide, except in very cold climates.
Known medicinally as chamomile, daisies bring healing as well as happiness.
Daisies have two rows of petals—an outer and an inner row.
Though stunning, daisies are often considered weeds, thriving in a variety of conditions.
Unlike many flowers, it’s the leaves and plant of the daisy that are most often consumed.
To me, daisies always looked like little suns—needing just eyes and a smile to complete their joyful expression. Seeing them bloom in ditches near the farm or along town houses always made me smile. Their fragrance kept me from bringing them indoors, but now knowing their health benefits, I might just put them in a vase after all.
