Calendula

Vibrant colour!

I'm pleased it did, it looks gorgeous. I was just thinking to myself that you couldn't paint something as perfect as that!

Lovely photo

Beautifull pic and flower Spritz..

beautiful colour

Beautiful.....

This was one of the mixed colour packet of seeds - Next year, I've decided to go back to growing 'Orange King', which is exactly like this!

O this looks so lovely Spritz :) Great Catch :)

beautiful colour Spritz, i always sow 'Art Shades' and Sherbert Fizz' but this is very nice too... i may do a few different ones next year, i would like to fine some that are really pinky... i do love these they are soooooo good at filling thoughs unsightly gaps arnt they..

This was from 'Art Shades', Angie - some of the colours have been lovely, but the really orange ones look sooooo much better in my back garden with the purple and white flowers!

Thanks, Jac! The photo without the flash just wasn't as good!

oh i have'nt had any this dark orange before or do you think this could because of the lighting? it is very nice... i do like art shades anyway, they have a lot of different variations, all of which look great along my right hand bed.... i'd like something a bit more pink for the other side ... not sure if that has been bread yet though.... oh well more hardy geraniums it is then :D

Ah - I just had a thought. This could possibly be a seedling from 'Orange King' - it's near where I had them last year.............................................

I have some great news for you, Angie! I have here the 'Plants of Distinction' catalogue - and in there, they have a Calendula called 'Flashback' - and it definitely more pink that any others I've ever seen!

They have a website:

www.plantsofdistinction.co.uk

Now go and take a look! Or - order a catalogue! :-))))))))))))))))))))))))))

OOOOOOhhhhhhhh will check that out, thanks Spritz...xx

It's worth it, Angie!

I find if u take pics Of Flowers that r Yellow/White/Orange @ sun setting time of day Or On Dull Days is best as u dont get the Glem from the Light coming back off those colours Sprritz ! :)

I love orange flowers i do!
There just so zesty! you can almost imagine them tasting of oranges can't you.

Errr....no?? I don't eat my flowers.........................................................lol.
