flowerhead
Daisy's central disc
A flowerhead is a dense cluster of small flowers grouped together on a single stem, appearing as one unit.
Daisies, sunflowers, and dandelions are actually flowerheads—what looks like petals are individual ray flowers surrounding tiny disc flowers at the center.
The term appears in botany and gardening: The flowerheads are starting to droop.
