Petals YellowflowerDay Contest Entry "Calendula" by Sunscape
Just another morning walking around my gardens to capture the fresh blossoms that have emerged. Today I had a lot of new Calendula flowers open. I loved this one due to it's thin petals. Hope you enjoy it too.

Quite lovely and so uplifting! The thin petals do make this a most interesting flower! I'm not familiar with Calendula - I've heard of them, but never knew anyone who grew any. Do you buy the plants every year or do you plant seeds?
Hi @violetmed, I actually grow most of my plants from seed. I start them mid-march under lights before I move them to the greenhouse. I use the flowers to infuse into the oils for some of my soaps. I choose to grow my own so that I know they really are organic.
Oh, that is fantastic. I really want a small greenhouse for my backyard. Maybe someday soon!
I like all of your post... nice your flower photography..😱

Thank you for the lovely compliment
so much beauty here @sunscape
Thank you as always
Happy little face this flower has, what is the perfume like @sunscape not a flower I have seen or heard of before.
I don't know how to explain what it smells like, kinda herbal yet sweet. I use them in my soaps for the good benefits of the plant.
Prefer herbal to sweet smelling soaps, it is interesting what you find in nature to use enhancing things Wanda.
