We love that flower and is unknown by us in Holland. We think the flower (plant) is so very common that we can't find a picture and name (English or Latin or Dutch) on internet. We call it purple daisy, however that is not the right name. Please, who can help us? I am thinking of the mesembryanthemum ("Hottentot fig") that grows over the walls in Cornwall and the Scillies. That is a purple daisy-like flower. Pam in Bristol |
