Everwilde Farms – 2000 Ox Eye Daisy Garden Flower Seeds – Gold Vault Jumbo Bulk Seed Packet

This beloved and well-known flower originally came from Europe, and rapidly spread to other continents because of its hardy, rapid growth; at one time, farmers in Scotland with too many daisies or “gools” in their fields had to pay a fine. In some states the Ox-Eye Daisy has been classified as invasive, and the sale of its seed is illegal in those regions. The species name Leucanthemum comes from ancient Greek words meaning simply “white flower.” The poet Chaucer was the first to give this family of flowers the name “day’s eye,” because of their habit of opening in the morning and closing at night. A common saying of the era stated, “When you can put your foot on seven daisies, summer is come.” In the language of flowers, daisies symbolize innocence, simplicity, and modesty.
