daisies........

I used to make daisy chains with these ones when I was in primary school............we used to have heaps on our oval..........
the little bees were so loaded with pollen.... see the orange on the legs......

these are all out in my outer front yard...............
wild and beautiful..........

paper daisies..........

I love dandelions (even though I know they are a weed) I can smell spring looking at your pictures.

I also remember the daisy chains, thought we called them 'wet the beds' We were always told if we picked and played with them we would wet the bed!!

I was reading all the comments thinking I was the only child who was told this when Sandra saved me."I also remember the daisy chains, thought we called them 'wet the beds' We were always told if we picked and played with them we would wet the bed!!" We called them "wet the beds" or dandelions.
