In this TN Nursery video, the narrator introduces the oxeye daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare), also known as dog daisy, marguerite, and oxeye daisy. The plant is native to Europe and widely distributed across temperate Asia, North America, Australia, and New Zealand. It is disease‑ and pest‑resistant, heat‑tolerant, and produces typical daisy heads with 15‑40 white ray petals surrounding a yellow disc. Blooming occurs in late spring to early summer. The daisy spreads via seed or deep rhizomes and thrives in sunny to partly sunny sites with moist, medium‑texture soil, especially in raised or potted beds that retain moisture and suppress weeds. Minor pests such as aphids and leaf miners may appear but cause little damage. The plant is low‑maintenance, perennial, and valued for its aesthetic appeal in garden groupings. The video concludes with a sales pitch: the oxeye daisy is available for purchase at Tennessee Wholesale Nursery with low prices and fast shipping.
