Daisy or Capeweed (Arctotheca calendula) is a plant in the sunflower family commonly known as capeweed, plain treasureflower, cape dandelion, or cape marigold because it originates from the Cape Province in South Africa. It is also found in neighboring KwaZulu-Natal. Around Gunnedah and probably the whole of the west there are patches of daisies. It’s a weed but it’s also pretty. It’s a good bee plant which the poor bees need with the Verona Mite scare. No need to propagate it. It’s a weed! Did you make daisy chains as a kid? #capeweed #flower #ArctothecaCalendula #CapeMarigold #CapeDandelion #abcmygarden #sunflower #daisy #weed #annual #SelfSeeding #daisychain (at Gunnedah Show Society) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiFBwqgOQRO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
