Calendula

Once upon a time I was a member of the gardening forum that is no longer in my good books!
They refused to let me participate in the seed exchange - even though I had done so many times before ( apparently I was a day late!)
Good old Veggie spotted the communications I was having and came to the rescue, suggesting that I join this forum instead.  (Thank you Veggie - a far friendlier community.)
Anyway some of you may remember that I put a picture of a particularly pretty stripy calendula on that forum.
I saved a bit of seed from the pretty little thing and sowed it this year when I found it lurking in my shoe box. It must be four (maybe more) years old.
 I was very pleased to see that I have managed to get a very similar one this year. 
Lots of them were not as interesting  - but still nice enough!
