tirti

Tirti refers to a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. These plants are native to the Mediterranean region and parts of Asia. They are commonly known as daisies or asters, although the term "tirti" is a specific botanical classification.

Species within the tirti genus are typically herbaceous perennials. They are characterized by their composite flower heads, which consist of many small florets. The ray florets, often perceived as petals, are usually white or pale pink, while the disc florets in the center are yellow. The leaves of tirti plants are usually simple and arranged alternately along the stem.

Tirti plants are generally hardy and can tolerate a range of soil conditions, though they prefer well-drained soil and full sun. They are often cultivated for their ornamental value in gardens and as cut flowers. Some species have also been traditionally used in folk medicine, though scientific evidence for these uses varies. The genus tirti is closely related to other genera within the Asteraceae family, such as Bellis and Chrysanthemum.
