I am starting to think this is a weed

This is NC and gets lots of sun. I thought it was special, but it looks weedy now. I have planted blanketflower and African daisies here in the past, but this is not either, right?

Leucanthemun vulgare. Ox-eye daisy.

Awesome! I probably just remembered the seed packet wrong. I am glad I left it. I planted thus back in April or May. Thanks!

I think it looks more like a seedling Shasta daisy, Leucanthemum x superbum. Ox eye, Leucanthemum vulgare has more spatulate leaves IME.

Thanks, flora. There are Shasta daisies not too far away, so that is a very real possibility. At least, it sounds like it is a daisy. My daughter will be thrilled! Thanks!
