💡 Fun Facts

  • Daisies get their name from "day's eye" because their petals close up at night and open again in the morning, just like an eye.
  • You can make a daisy chain by carefully making a small slit in the stalk of one daisy with your nail and threading another through it.
  • They are very tough plants and can survive being trodden on or mown.
