Title: Bet you didn't know this.....

Guess I will start this topic off..... then you can all tell me yours. I was reading through my wildflower books, that I have at home, and I was looking at different families of plants. Apparently Ragwort and thistle belong to the same family as the daisy. Interesting ain't it?
