deities associated with ox-eye daisy:
“6. Another son of Odin is BALDUR. Of him there is lonly good to tell; he is the best of all and all praise him. He is so fair and shining in visage that light comes from him, and there is a plant so white that it has been compared to the god’s eyelashes and called “Baldur’s brow”; it is the whitest of all plants. Baldur is the wisest, most eloquent and gracious of all the Aesir. This peculiarity follows him, however, that none of his decisions hold. His dwelling is in heaven in Breithablik, and in this place there can be nothing impure.” —from “The Handbook of Norse Mythology”:, by Karl Mortensen, 1898 (“Nordisk mythologi”), original Danish, translated into English 1913 by A. Clinton Crowell
