The Michaelmas Daisy, or as we know it, the Easter Daisy, comes from place as far apart as North America and China, with Italy in between and it was from Italy, way back in 1575, that the first Michaelmas Daisies found their way to England. In those days they were called "Starwort" for their resemblance to stars. In France, where flowers often had a religious significance, they have always been 'l'oeil de Christ' or the eye of Christ.
