Any of several species of Garden plants in the composite family, especially the oxeye daisy (Chrysanthemum leucanthemum) and the English, or true, daisy (Bellis perennis).

Both are native to Europe but have become naturalized in the U.S. These and Other plants called daisies are distinguished by a flower composed of 15-30 white ray flowers surrounding a bright yellow disk flower.
