Oxeye
daisy is a perennial plant that spreads both by rhizome and by seed.
It is found throughout Indiana but is most severe to our north. |
 |

|

The plant's
showy flower is about 1-2 inches in diameter with a yellow center and white
to gray petals. Mature Oxeye daisy plants are usually less than 2
feet tall. |

The seeds
are oval and black with 8 to 10 rows of ridges running lengthwise on the
seed. This weed is found especially in uncultivated areas on poor
soils. It does not compete well with crops on fertile soils. |
