Notes:
Daisy, also called common daisy, field daisy and small daisy, is excessively common in all pastures that show the slightest trace of dampness. There is also a perenial creeping rootstock and the stem never raises off the ground, so that the leaves form a close mat. The flower stalks may be two or three inches long, and the flower heads have a yellow central disc with a white outer ray. Daisy grow[th] can be largely cured by draining, liming, or manuring with basic slag.

Herbarium history:
This collection is part of a collection given to the Allan Herbarium via Laurence Smith (Amberly office, Environment Canterbury). This was given to L. Smith in the early 1990's by someone in Port Robinson, Cheviot. The collection is believed to have been collected in 1948, based on several specimens with fully written dates in the collection.
