Re-directed due to name change from Chrysanthemum segetum to Glebionis segetum.

This introduced, attractive cornfield weed is much less common than it once was on arable land and this tatty specimen was on the edge of a football pitch of a small club where the ground staff can't afford expensive herbicides. It is an east mediterranean native which has spread throughout the Mediterranean and the British Isles. Now known as Glebionis segetum by European botanists it has also been named Xanthophthalmum segetum by Sell and Murell.

This plant is found throughout the British Isles and Ireland but not on the high ground. It is most likely to be found near the coast.
