Daisy (Leucanthemum) is a genus in the composite family (Asteraceae).
The botanical name Leucanthemum is derived from the Ancient Greek words λευκός, leukos = "white" and ἄνθεμον, anthemon = "flower".
Representatives of this genus are found in Europe, North Africa and the temperate zones of Asia. They can also be found in Australia and New Zealand.
The genus contains perennial, sometimes annual plants that range in height from 5 to 100 cm.
The genus was split off from the genus Chrysanthemum because the flowers are not aromatic and the leaves lack the grey-white hairs.
The herbaceous, fast-growing stem is usually unbranched and springs from a creeping rhizome.
The leaves are alternately placed. The leaf margins are single or double toothed.
Some species are decorative and have given rise to many cultivars for cut flowers such as 'Aglaia', 'Esther Read', 'Wirral Pride', 'Wirral Supreme', 'Tinkerbell' and 'Snow Lady'
