Daisies come in many variations. There can be different daisy variations in the colors, flower blooms, foliage, and sizes. It would be almost impossible to tell the total amount of variations. Plant breeders are always coming up with new hybrids and cultivars that have many changes about them that differ from those before them.
Daisies are from the Daisy Family which is very large and different family of plants and thousands of cultivars created by man. Some of the different variations in daisies are the English daisy, which is considered the true daisy. It is treated as an annual in cold climates. Variations in the flowers include singles, semi-doubles and doubles. The yellow center is on single and semi-double forms, and is hidden by the many overlapping petals on double varieties. Daisy flower size varies from the large types with four inch diameter blossoms to the small one inch diameter button types. Flower color of the English daisy can be red, white, crimson, rose, pink or bi-colored.
Daisies make great fresh cut flowers in the summer when they are in season. There are so many colors and sizes to pick from you can make a wonderful and interesting fresh flower arrangement from the different varieties of daisies.
