Mexican marigold bush

 With the start of winter there is not a lot of colour around and we have had a lot of comments on our Mexican Marigold Bush which is flowering in all its glory at the moment.  We bought the cuttings for these plants from the Monarch Butterfly Society in September 2020 and now have plants spread through the garden.

    1. The Monarch Butterfly Society was selling cuttings of 3 different plants. One didn't make it one was too vigorous but this one was a keeper. Hope you feel better soon.

    1. Our friends across the road enjoy them, they see more of them than we do.

    1. Hopefully some will still be flowering in the spring. They were last year.

  5. Blimey. We have French Marigolds but they're nothing like that.

    1. These are nothing like the other marigolds we grow.

    1. I have never seen it anywhere else and, as I said, we bought the cutting from the Monarch Butterfly Society.
