Description
This macro shot of a black and white daisy was taken while on a recent visit to a local greenhouse in Rock Falls, Illinois
Daisy is a sun like flower appearance which has ray flowers (commonly called petals) surrounds a golden center of tiny disk flowers, an arrangement typical of the composite family. Daisy is the second largest family of flowering plants, in terms of number of species. Its plants make up nearly ten percent of all flowering plants on earth, and it’s arguable as to whether it or the orchid family holds more genera and species. Some daisies open their petals in the morning when the sun comes up and close them at night when the sun is down (that is why daisies are sometimes called "day's eye"). Daisy flowers include not only the blooms most people are familiar with, but also popular health herbs such as Echinacea and arnica, and many edible plants such as artichokes and endive.
