Common on shore, especially in saltmarshes. Flowerhead diameter c 12-20 mm Skye ID: Unmistakable, told from escaped Michaelmas Daisies by fleshy leaves. Other features: Sometimes the mauve ray-florets are absent, but I have not seen any like this on Skye. They can also be very pale or even white. |
