Delight Your Yard With Large, Round Flowerheads Of Oxeye Daisy

Oxeye Daisy, which blooms single or in clusters from May through September, can reach a height of three feet on their tall, thick individual stems. The flowers they produce are actually multiple flowers in one. 15 to 35 white (ray flower) petals surround the flower head, which consists of 400 to 500 yellow disk flowers. This flower's distinctive feature is its enormous, spherical blossom head. Each bloom can reach up to three inches in diameter. When full-grown, these plants can get up to two feet wide. Once established, you'll likely never run out of daisies since they are so good at self-seeding.

Make Your Yard Unique With Spoon-Shaped Leaves Of The Oxeye Daisy

This plant has dark green, spoon-shaped leaves that taper into narrow, serrated ones as they grow up the stem. Leaves that are the biggest appear around the plant's base; they are about six inches long and two inches wide and have as many as 15 lobed edges. The top leaves are thin, alternately placed, and sometimes clasp up against the stem. These clasping leaves, which are one to four inches long, also have lobed edges. Typically, the number of teeth or lobed edges on a leaf increases as it grows higher on the stalk.

Add Biodiversity to Your Yard Oxeye Daisy Nectar-Rich Plants

The oxeye daisy is the largest type. Pollen and nectar found in these flowers are essential for the survival of several pollinating insects, such as moths, beetles, butterflies, hoverflies, and beetles. The male disk flowers emit a ring of yellow pollen around the periphery, while the many tiny flowers that compose the flower's yellow center contain nectar. Adding these flowers to your yard or garden is a perfect way to lure pollinators and increase their biodiversity.

Oxeye Daisy Are Perfect for Pest and Wildlife Control

These plants are magnets for good bugs, such as pollen-feeding beetles, which eat bad bugs like aphids. Animals like cattle stay away from areas with these flowers because they irritate the wildlife's lips, nostrils, and legs. These characteristics make the plant an excellent form of pest and wildlife control.
