Sugarweed, oxe-eyes have yellow centers. Here they are quite quite and the blooms are large. They are quite hardy and bloom the whole summer long. They have a tendancy to sprawl, since the stems are so long. They get 2-4' tall here with the blooms on them. Actually, they are a wonderful plant for the meadow or the edges of your yard. You just don't want to plant them in your flower beds.

One year the oxe-eye daisies were so thick along the roadsides from our place to town that I swore someone seeded it there. Ceeades lives just down the road from us and she's the one that gave me a sandwich bag full of seeds, so I've accused her of opening a bag of them and letting them blow out the riders side window of her car that spring! Of course, she denies it! They were sure pretty all summer.

Maybe we should consider hanging a hand or two out the bus in areas where we aren't hurting mother nature. I've got tons of Iris setosa seeds, and chocolate lily seeds I could offer.
