ORGANIC WILD FLOWER OX EYE DAISY
£1.09 – £9.99
A familiar and attractive grassland perennial found in meadows, grass verges and railway embankments. It flourishes in well drained poor to medium rich soils. The 12—18in plants produce a single flower of white petals surrounding a yellow eye between late may and early Sep. The plant spreads via seeding producing up to 400 seeds per flower head. In dense meadows it will need other aggressive species kept in check and will benefit from scarifying on a bi-annual basis.
The open flower heads of Ox-eye daisy attract a large range of pollinating insects particularly bees, butterflies and hoverflies.
