Project 60-Flower of the Day : Daisy 16/60
The birth month flower of April is Daisy.
It's also known as the "day's eye", meaning it opens and closes with the sun.
The flower symbolized innocence and purity.
Maidens usually use this flower to decorate their hair.
In Victorian time, heart broken young ladies used this flower to predict future love.
They plucked each petal of the flower and sang, "he loves me, he loves me not".
The last petal is the answer. It is still used like that today.
