My wife and I are trying to locate some Straggler Daisy for use in our front yard as a ground cover. I've called many, of not all, of the nurseries in town to see if they carry it, and no one has it in stock. They have told me that most people are trying to get rid of it in their yards, as it is viewed as a weed in lawn grasses, and that offering free weeding services to those that have it may be the best way to go - for both parties.

I put an ad on craigslist, but haven't received a response yet. I thought maybe someone here would be able to help me out in either getting it out of their yard, or knowing where I can find some.

Attached are images of what it looks like. It typically grows in shady areas.

Well, there's an event called Festival of Flowers on May 26 at the Alzafar Temple. The S.A. chapter of the Native Plant Society of Texas will have a table there with plants for sale.

Also, that local native plant organization has meetings most months of the year. The next meeting should be May 22nd at 6:30 p.m. If you'd like to attend, I could give info on the location. Many of the members have the plant you are talking about.
