Pincushion Daisy is one of the wildflowers that can be easily overlooked. It grows from a rosette of lance-shaped leaves on the ground, sends up a tall stem, on top of which is a single, often petal less bloom. On closer inspection, you notice a mildly sweet fragrance. Plant Pincushion Daisies in a thick clump near your door, or a place where you walk frequently. You won't be able to resist the urge to stop and enjoy the beauty and fragrance of this diminutive flower.
