Young Blonde Girl Shows Off On The Field Of Daisy Flowers

Bellis perennis has astringent properties and has been used in folk medicine. In ancient Rome, the surgeons who accompanied Roman legions into battle would order their slaves to pick sacks full of daisies in order to extract their juice. Bandages were soaked in this juice and would then be used to bind sword and spear cuts.
Daisies have traditionally been used for making daisy chains in children's games.
