: Hi Susie,
: There are African diasies botanically known as Dimorphotheca sinuata and African mums but you will need to look under African chrysanthemum.  I did a search at google and only got info for the insecticide that comes from the African mum.  Here's a picture of the African daisy.  Is this your flower?

: Not a great picture, but here's the African mum in white.

: The two plants are very similar.  I can't find a source for the African mum on google.

: Hope this helped,
