Marguerite daisy flowers are a small shrub-like perennial in the family Asteraceae, which are native to the Canary Islands.
Marguerites are of the frutescens species. Similar to Leucanthemum, or ox-eye daisies, they were formerly considered to be part of the Chrysanthemum genus but have been reclassified as Argyranthemum, making them part of the Aster family.
Dandelion flowers are very similar to those of cat's ears (Hypochaeris). Both plants carry similar flowers, which form into windborne seeds. However, dandelion flowers are borne singly on unbranched, hairless and leafless, hollow stems, while catsear flowering stems are branched, solid, and carry bracts.
