      daisies all day long.no stems and leaves hanging around, stopping the grass from being cut.

      Daffs - has to be daffs. When they are all out together they are a riot of yellow so early in Spring.
      Actually, they don't grow where I live now (tropics). I hope to be back to UK in a couple of years so then I can have some daffs again. You miss the ones you can't have the most.

      Daisies are so versatile. Daffs are wonderful too, but its the green leaves that you have to leave forever after the flowers are long gone that annoys me.

      Definitely Daffodils - but that might be because I am Welsh.

      Daisies are intrusive. If you don't want anything else but them, they are great. But if you are putting it in a planned landscape, they will take over the garden.

      Daffs mean Spring has arrived. A symbol of warmer days on the way.

      not really a flower person, but daffodils more than daisies. I particularly like the Wordsworth's poem

      Don't really like Daffodils, so picked Daisies, which I don't really like much either.

      Spring=Snowdrops.

      "I wandered slowly in a cloud,

      Tripped in a hole, I wasn't proud

      But saw, when I put my cigarette out

      A host of golden daffodils."

      I like, and grow, both. Daisies are good colour in the winter, and daffs in the early spring. I had white daisies at my second wedding.

      Nóinín was on the list of names for my niece. Lovely gentle sounding name - No -neen. Irish for Daisy. They chose another name, but I still call her Nóinín as a pet name or else Lady Daisy!!

      I love daffodils because they signal the start of warmer temperatures

      My great grandmother was named Daisy, so daisies have got to be my personal favourite! the fresh sense of summer that you feel when you see the lawn littered with the beautiful creatures! They are beautiful and so precious, with their white faces sunbathing all day. Got to be considered my favourite :)

      As they appear at different times I don't understand there can be a comparison, even if they do overlap. @kizmit27 you are expressing little understanding of plants. chookchook2 has explained it all for you. You put them where it suits them. There they are all beautiful.

      Why don't you mix them so that when the daffodils die off, the daisies are ready to take over.
