Oxeye Daisy is a European wildflower introduced to North America that has naturalized widely in meadows, roadsides, and disturbed areas. While non-native, its white-and-yellow flowers are visited by many pollinators. It can form dense stands that displace native wildflowers, and it is considered invasive in some regions.

Habitat
Meadows, roadsides, and disturbed areas across North America
