Are marguerite daisies and montauk daisies the same?

Marguerite daisies and Montauk daisies are not the same, although they belong to the same family, Asteraceae. Marguerite daisies (Argyranthemum frutescens) are typically characterized by their vibrant white or yellow flowers and are often used in gardens for their long blooming period. Montauk daisies (Nipponanthemum nipponicum), on the other hand, are known for their late-season blooms and are more tolerant of coastal conditions. While both are popular in landscaping, they have distinct growing habits and flower characteristics.
