It looks to be of the choreopsis family to me. I have to dead-head them a lot in my job.
It looks like a shasta daisy... but I can't remember the name of it. They are annuals... and are very profuse at seeding if I remember correctly... lol
I believe its madia elegans or common tarweed; some consider it a wildflower. See the following website: http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symb...
Asteraceae (Compositae) - Sunflower family

We always called these Indian Paintbrushes in Texas.
That looks like some fancy sort of coreopsis. Not sure though. Look up coreopsis, and see if you can find anything similar.
GOLDEN COREOPSIS (COREOPSIS TINCTORIA / CALLIOPSIS)
"Coco" has it for you. She's correct.
