Rayless Daisy - native (Brachyscome perpusilla)

Family: Asteraceae (Daisy family).

Native.

The seeds of brachyscome are usually flattened and with wings.

Identification:

• it is a diminutive plant to about 5cm high
• the petals are very small (hence the name "rayless daisy")
• the leaves divided with narrow teeth.

The small toothed leaves are an important identification feature, and useful in separating Rayless Daisy from other diminutive daisies.
