In the ''[[NES Open Tournament Golf|Mario Open Golf]]'' story, Daisy plays golf with Mario, Luigi, and Peach. A disguised [[Bowser|King Koopa]] shows up to trick them into playing a high-stakes golf tournament with pro-golfers [[Tony (NES Open Tournament Golf)|Tony]] and [[Billy]]. There are signs of Daisy becoming interested in Luigi as he is a much better golfer than Mario, who has to resort to cheating.

Daisy later reappears on [[Kitchen Island]] while Mario and Luigi travel there to investigate the cause of a mysterious fog that has spread over the Mushroom Kingdom, making the citizens all fall ill. She assists Mario in stopping the source of the poisonous fog, [[Debidebi Daiō]], who was released after Mario and friends destroyed a statue in [[Stove Canyon]]. However, Debidebi Daiō falls in love with Daisy, sending the [[Genie (Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3)|Genie]] to kidnap her. While kidnapped, Daisy receives a vision from Peach, who reveals that Daisy is in fact, an {{wp|fenshen|alter ego}} of herself. She asks Daisy to save the world in her stead, as she is incapacitated by her illness. However, she adds that after doing so, Daisy will disappear. Eventually, Mario rescues Daisy and defeats Debidebi Daiō, but the poison gas remains spread across the world. Knowing what she has to do, Daisy states she knows a way to still save the world, thanking Mario for all the wonderful memories and kissing him before saying goodbye. Before disappearing, she asks Mario to think of her whenever he sees daisies blooming in a field, her body turning into spores. The spores spread across the world, purifying it and healing everyone who had fallen sick. Mario mourns her sacrifice and is later shown placing flowers at her grave. However, after purifying the world, Daisy's spores touch down on the ground, sprouting into flowers which bloom and grow into a horde of small versions of Daisy, reviving her. The group of Daisies excitedly runs towards Mario, much to everyone's surprise.

Daisy's final appearance in the manga is in a four-cell gag strip at the end of the second volume of the ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' adaptation. Luigi tells the revived Daisy that she is just a copy, and that he loved the original Daisy, sadly placing a ring of flowers on her tombstone. However, the ground beneath the grave begins to rise, causing Luigi to scream in terror and urinate himself. Given the gag nature of this strip, the authenticity of this event is unclear.
