Daisy flowers include not only the blooms most people are familiar with, but also popular health herbs such as echinacea and arnica, and many edible plants such as artichokes and endive. A daisy is a mix of two flowers called a disk floret and a white ray floret.
Introduction. The southeastern face of Mount Rushmore in South Dakotaâs Black Hills National Forest is the site of four gigantic carved sculptures depicting the faces of U.S. Presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt.
Photo courtesy of the US National Park Service, Mount Rushmore National Memorial Carving began on Mount Rushmore National Memorial in 1927 and was finished in 1941. Initially, the sculptor, Gutzon Borglum, selected George Washington and Abraham Lincoln as subjects for the carving. Thomas Jefferson was quickly added to the project followed by Theodore Roosevelt. Borglum created Mount Rushmore not only as a monument to the four men depicted, but also to the American ideals the four men represent. Borglum chose these specific presidents because they commemorate the founding, growth, preservation and development of the United States.
