Crazy for Daisies

I love Daisies. As in, I LOVE them. They are so pretty and springy and just make me happy. The image above is my current desktop background. I even had a custom cover made for my Surface Pro, and found the same for my airpods:
The only thing that makes me sad, is the shortage of DAISY Patterns in china dishes! My absolute favorite is this daisy pattern from Gracie China:
 I wish there were more pieces with this pattern. It's definitely my "cup of tea."
 And there's this lovely Gisela Graham pattern, (U.K.) but can't get it here in the U.S.:
And there's always Poppytrail by Metlox:

It's cute, but it's sort of "vintage" and very "1970's" to me. I love more delicate china, and Shelley Blue Daisy Chintz never disappoints. But it's very hard to find.
And this gem from KH Pottery:
But that's about all I've found. And I am REALLY handy with the internet searches. Surprised there isn't more love for Daisies. But every spring I get Daisy Fever and maybe one day, I'll find the perfect china pattern.
