Description

Chrysanthemum segetum is a short to medium height annual and unmistakeable in flower (June to October) with its large bright yellow daisy-like compound flower head. The leaves are slightly fleshy, lobed, hairless and covered with a waxy layer that gives them a greenish blue colour. Until recently this species was know by the old botanical name of Chrysanthemum segetum. Some modern publications including Sell and Murrell list it as Xantophthalmum segetum.
