One of my long time favourites is "Daisy". Name derives from "Day's eye" because its flowers close at night and open at dawn to greet the day.

If you look at a daisy closely, the central yellow bit is actually a mass of small tubular flowers/florets.

Daisies are members of the Asteraceae/Compositae family as are lettuce, dandelions and Jerusalem artichokes. Check out the flowers on these and you'll see the similarity with Daisies.
