The First -And the Last - Marigold '07...

I was late in sowing the seeds of marigold in June.. there were just leaves .. But then in October the first orange flower began to bloom!
There are some small buds, too, but they won't open in the cold weather any more.. So I took this brave one to the vase and admire it on my table..:)

What a grand marigold it is, too. You were wise to take it indoors to get every bit of enjoyment you can out of it. In recent years we've seen pansies move from being exclusively spring flowers to showing up in autumn gardens as well. Next maybe we'll have spring chrysanthemums?

Your Canon does give you consistently brilliant color. This is wonderful.
