Observations:
First of all, I collected two plants of the same species but they were
different in colour. Their name are:

DAISY
Daisies are flowers with flat petals that surround a round center.
Daisies belong to the aster family, which also includes
chrysanthemums, dahlias, marigolds, sunflowers, and zinnias.

Common types of daisy include the oxeye daisy; the English, or true,
daisy; and the Shasta daisy. These daisies grow in Europe, North
America, and other parts of the world. Oxeye and English daisies grow
in gardens and in the wild. The Shasta daisy is mainly a garden plant.

Daisy plants often grow to about 2 to 3 feet (61 to 91 centimeters) tall.


The flowers grow on long stalks. Two types of flower make up each
flower head. Ray flowers are what people call petals. The ray flowers
may be long or short. Tiny disk flowers make up the center. The center
may be flat or rounded. Depending on the type of daisy, the flower
heads are from 1 to 4 inches (2.5 to 10 centimeters) wide.

Oxeye and Shasta daisies have a ring of white ray flowers around a
bright yellow center. The ray flowers of the English daisy may be white,
purple, pink, or red.
Sunflower
The common sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is a species of large annual
forb of the daisy family Asteraceae. The common sunflower is
harvested for its edible oily seeds which are used in the production of
cooking oil.
The Helianthus annuus has a variety of purposes e.g. food for livestock,
bird food, and planted in domestic gardens for aesthetics. The
Helianthus annuus is known for its multiple flower heads, whereas the
domestic sunflower often possesses a single large flower head atop an
unbranched ste
