Scentless Chamomile / Matricaria perforata

26 Sep 2010 178
A pretty little flower that tends to look like "just another daisy". Found on a walk at Clearwater Park on 4th September. "Native to Europe, it was introduced as an ornamental and/or a contaminant in crop seed. This is not the chamomile used for tea as it is scent-less.... Scentless Chamomile and Oxeye daisy are often mistaken for each other as the flowers are nearly identical, but the leaves are very different. Both plants are weeds - there are no native white-flowered daisies in Alberta." www.invasiveplants.ab.ca/Downloads/FS-ScentlessChamomile.pdf
