Oxeye daisy

Oxeye daisy

Leucanthemum vulgare, commonly known as oxeye daisy. The oxeye daisy is native to Europe and Asia. The plant was used in traditional medicines to treat various health problems, such as coughs and asthma. The flower heads have also been used to make tea. It was thought to be strongly linked to divination, particularly in France, where it would be used in romantic predictions. These links to divination have filtered down to the modern game of ‘he loves me, he loves me not’ where petals are picked to determine luck in love.
