Thanks Sheri!

These are some calendula that I am growing for the first time this year. They are so nice and bright and so far... knocking on wood... the animals have left them alone! I keep going back to the small nursery to get more of these!

Another garden with calendula and 1 lantana plant.
The calendulas are all orange - I don't know why the bottom 2 look yellow!

That is so pretty. I know why they call them ditch lilies but I prefer day lilies.

There is no real difference except they tend to go wild in drainage ditches where there is sufficient supply of water. And most revert to original orange.

the stem isn't actually red. that is a wild grape vine that has taken over that corner of my driveway. it grows up everything that will be still.

and, tina is right, they are called ditch lilies because they grow so well in drainage ditches. lots of folks will use them for soil stabilization by their culverts.
