Gallery

I am not sure that this article needs a gallery. What it clearly doesn't need is a gallery of every available photo of a "daisy", regardless of species. --Hans Adler (talk) 20:59, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ray florets

Under "Growth" was the statement that the flower has 15-30 ray florets, referenced to Encycopaedia Britannica. The reference was discussing the family not the individual species. Anyone who has daisies in their lawn can confirm that the count for B. perennis is more like 30-50 but I can't find a reference for that so I just deleted the misleading numbers.Newburyjohn (talk) 19:41, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology

There's a discrepancy about the genus name, Bellis. One section says it's Latin for "pretty", while the next says that it refers to war or battle.
