Description
Daisies are not flowers. Square fractal version.
They are actually groups of tiny yellow flowers. Even their petals are each a separate white one.
Asteraceae or Compositae (commonly referred to as the aster, daisy, or sunflower family) is the name of a family of flowering plants. The main feature of the family is the composite flower type, a special type of inflorescence, in which anything from a small cluster to hundreds or sometimes thousands of flowers are grouped together to form a single flower-like structure.
These tiny flowers are differentiated into ray and disk flowers, unique to this family. The disk flowers are in the center and the corolla is fused into a tube. Ray flowers are on the periphery and the corolla has one large lobe (the so-called "petals" of a daisy are individual ray flowers).
There is Magic hidden in plain sight everywhere.
Take Nothing for Granted.
There is a non-fractal version of this image.
