The leaves of oxeye daisy are basal, spatulate to ovate, measuring 1 to 5 inches (2.5 to 12.5 cm) in length. They exhibit a toothed edge, with longer leaves at the base and smaller, pinnatifid leaves closer to the top. The leaves are typically green, with a somewhat rough texture and prominent veins. The leaf arrangement and distinct size variation from base to top are notable features.
Oxeye daisy flowers typically bloom from May to August. Each flower head features a distinct arrangement of white, slender rays surrounding a flattened, yellow central disk. The white rays, or petals, radiate outward in a daisy-like pattern, measuring up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) in length. The central disk is densely packed with numerous tiny florets, creating a vivid yellow eye. These flowers are approximately 2 inches (5 cm) in diameter and emit a mild, faintly sweet fragrance.
