Ox-eye daisy is similar to shasta daisy (Leucanthemum × superbum) which has larger flower heads (5–12 cm or 2– 4 + 3 ⁄ 4 in wide) and to stinking chamomile (Anthemis cotula) which has smaller heads (1.5–3 cm or 5 ⁄ 8 – 1 + 1 ⁄ 8 in wide). [4] L. maximum is also similar, usually with rays 2–3 cm (3 ⁄ 4 – 1 + 1 ⁄ 8 in) in ...

As a result, the populations of the two daisy species ...
