Notes:

Ox-eye daisy is an aggressive invasive species. Once established, it can spread rapidly by means of roots and seeds into undisturbed meadows, woodlands, and riparian areas. It forms dense stands that tend to displace native vegetation, especially wildflowers. Also commonly known as the ox-eye daisy, oxeye daisy, dog daisy, marguerite.
