  1. unrelated ,i suspect the daisy is related to the dandelion...................tom


  2. No way, daisies are in the Asteraceae, (formerly Compositae family), while clover is in the Fabaceae family, related to peas and other legumes!

       Point of interest here, clovers will grow in starved soils as they fix nitrogen for their own use! Daisies and other plants, wild flowers, flower well as they  favour soils low in nitrogen to flower. Explanation why the coincidence in flowers!

  3. So far as I know they are unrelated, but it's certainly the time of year for clover to be in full bloom.

  4. Nope!

    daisies are from the botanical family cruciferae,

    clover is from labiatae.

    forgive my spelling it was a long time ago i did botany.
