This is an unusual bloom. The petals on the front side are bright white, but on their backsides they are deep yellow. You can see them here in various stages of development. The petals seem to curl open. From the ground view they are yellow, from above they are white. I was baffled by them at first. More daisies, I thought. But the yellow. Where is the yellow coming from? It turns out that the better question might be where is the white coming from? I’m still not entirely sure what’s going on. Is it just a twist in the DNA? Were they once yellow and white before merging? Or is this more than a tiny accident? Are bugs attracted to what seems like an optical illusion? Sometimes flowers bring more questions than answers. Sometimes daisies are not daisies at all.
