Creeping daisies are native to the western Mediterranean and relatively new to Japan, i.e., imported in the 1960s. Technically they're not chrysanthemums but are in the same family (i.e., Asteraceae) and have a Japanese name "
kanshiro giku," which translates into "white chrysanthemum blooming in the cold season." Creeping daisies are generally perennial but in Japan they flower only from December to June and die because they cannot tolerate the extreme heat and high humidity of the Japanese summer. Instead, however, they provide insects with important food sources in winter after almost all flowers are gone.

カンシロギク(寒白菊)です。菊と付いていますが、デイジーと言った方がいいかもしれません。地中海辺りが原産で日本に来たのは1960年代。高温多湿に弱く、咲くのは12月から6月ぐらいまでです。でもおかげで虫たちにとっては、冬の花の無い時期の大事な食糧供給源になっています。
