National Daisy Day is celebrated on January 28th to honor the daisy flower, which is appreciated for its beauty and variety, boasting over 20,000 different species. This day encourages people to grow daisies, learn about them, and share them with loved ones, often through gifting bouquets or potted plants. Daisies are known for their medicinal properties and can be used in salads or baked goods. The day also serves as a reminder of the flower's historical significance, dating back to Ancient Egypt, where it was valued for both its aesthetic and health benefits. Celebrations may include attending daisy festivals, such as the Yellow Daisy Festival in Georgia or the Daisy Festival Outdoor Fest in Minnesota, which feature arts, crafts, and outdoor activities.
