What a wonderful story. I've always loved daisies but the only ones I've ever grown have been Gerber Daisies. I'll have to keep a close eye out for the Ox-eyes now. I'll think of you and your dear mother when I find them.

Thanks for sharing your special memories of them.

I'm glad you enjoyed it... it's fun to share some of the things that make such an "ordinary" flower so special.

Oh Jill, you've touched my heart with the pictures, the descriptive writing, and most of all the heartfelt sentiment of a daughter for her mother.
