Whenever I look through my old photos, this cheerful picture catches my attention, so I decided to share it for Nature Tuesday.
This photo is from the summer, you can’t see it well but the sea in the background.
There are small daisies in the grass everywhere these days. I think the ones on the photo are daisies too, but they are quite large compared to the ones I see often. Do you have any idea what kind of daisies they are?

They are the pretty kind Ellie. I figured you’d know that. 😉 Thanks for sharing these daisies!
Aw, you are funny, but you are also right, they are pretty. Thank you so much!
Also in our country we call this plant a large daisy or oxeye daisy.
Thank you so much for answering!
Common daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare) is a herbaceous plant that belongs to the family Asteraceae (Complex flowers). Also called alpha, white board, daisy, big chick. The White Council was originally called Chrysanthemum leucanthemum from Linnaeus in 1773 and was used until the 1990s, when it became clear that a new classification of the genus Chrysanthemum was needed. The old name of the plant means “golden flower white flower”. In French, the name of the plant means pearl.
I found this interesting information about your wild daisies

Thank you so much for this interesting information, Elenka!
Wonderful information. I have often wondered what the difference was between a mum and daisy.
Botany can be confusing 😀
they look like Shasta Daisies, but we all know what my plant identification skills are like!
You know the names of different kinds of daisies, you are already ahead of me!
i know three kinds of daisies, not a huge lead!
It’s more than my 0, haha.
but add in your dessert knowledge and the lead is once again yours
It resembles the chamomile growing on my land. Beautiful!
Thank you very much!
Also, daisies of different sizes grow in us, dear Ellie … from the smallest to the largest such as these in the picture …. I don’t know what kind of daisies are
It seems that there are many different types of daisies. Thank you for your comment!
That is a lovely photo. Daisies always make me smile but I don’t know what kind of daisies they are.
Thank you very much! I just read that there are many varieties of the daisy.
Your image does depict summer ideally.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
