parks and gardens. The reason was simple: With contaminated grass seeds, it spread rapidly from the Mediterranean region all around the world.
Nearly independent from the season, daisies bloom with great endurance from March to November, sometimes even until late in winter if it is very mild - sometimes, single blossoms are even found in the melting snow. Bellis Perennis preferably grows in nutrient-rich, sunny locations and is, therefore, always found on lawns, over-fertilized pastures, in parks and gardens.
The small flower is not only very assertive but also considered a medicinal plant in folk medicine which preparation as tea is said to improve appetite and which application with skin problems is very effective. The roots are also used medicinal.
The small edible flower is also surrounded by a good deal of superstition. Not only the famous daisy oracle is meant, where you tear out one petal by one to learn if your beloved one loves you back - it's even said that you are spared from toothaches, eyestrain and fever for a full year if you eat the first three visible daises of the year. And, indeed, consumption is the next important keyword as you can harvest the young leaf rosettes of the daisies like lamb's lettuce and also prepare them as a salad or add them to a herb or blossom butter preparation. Pickled, the buds are often eaten as caper substitute and the blossoms are edible, as well. As they have a slightly bitter taste, they can be found especially as an addition to salad.
