Hi, I would like some more of these but I have no name for them. Thank you 
The ones in the pic are not mine but I have been given one which I hope will root

    They look like Leucanthemum Vulgare, Ox-Eye Daisy.

    Hi Borderline - I was just typing a post to ask if they are Ox-Eye. I read that ox-eye have Rhizomatic root and that's what they look like

    I think the ox eye has a different leaf shape, though it's hard to see clearly.

    so easy to grow and readily available - thanks for your input

    Ox eye is about the easiest thing to grow, I would say, in a pot or out of it. It self seeds everywhere. I just don't think that's what you have.

    Fire, thank you. Are the leaves in the pic from an ox-eye? The ones I have are long and narrow with a toothed edge.  I am also researching on google - I hate to think how many varieties of daily are in existence

    Maybe Shasta daisy going by the leaf shape?
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Thanks wild edges - another avenue to explore. This may be a question I regret researching.

    Hi, yes, my pic above are ox eyes. There are indeed a gazillion white daisies out there. I've given up trying to guess my IDs of them.
