Tripleurospermum maritimum (syn. Matricaria maritima[1]) is a species of flowering plant in the aster family commonly known as false mayweed[2] or sea mayweed. It is found in many coastal areas of Northern Europe, including Scandinavia and Iceland, often growing in sand or amongst beach pebbles.
In Iceland, sea mayweed is known as Baldr's eyelashes (baldursbrá), though this name is given to all mayweed flowers in Norway and Sweden.
