I thought these were dandelions from a distance. They are in my wildflower area and I'm not sure what they are. The leaves don't look like dandelions... they are softer and no real serration. Is it a type of daisy? #plantid

Lots of plants in the dandelion family. You can look at them on google images but for a proper identification it’s best to have a flora. There are also lots of daisies. Do they have a tap root?

Ah! And going back to the botany Asteraceae. Both dandelion and daisy are Asteraceae. You were right on both counts Mary @CheerfulandLiterate! 🤗
