Hello Linda, I agree with nasturtium (I grow them in winter in my plot in Lincolnville community garden) but I am not sure photo # 5 is a California poppy (Escholtzia). Maybe Calendula?? I really enjoy your blog. Take care. Annie
Thank you for the feedback! I think I remember where that plant is and will go check. The flower I photographed was not open so I will check the ones that are and see what I find. I will check it against calendula and let you know.
I’m currently growing nasturtium in my garden. I heard they’re good at keeping pests away from tomato plants. 🙂 Thanks for sharing these beautiful flowers.
I didn’t know they like cool weather. I read they need full sun when I planted them & I live in California where it gets to 100 F most day near the end of summer. Hopefully they pull through haha
I am going to have to try to grow them then. I haven’t seen them anywhere in my neighborhood but maybe I just to get the right cultivar. I just looked it up and there are many varieties. I hope yours does well and now I am motivated to plant some.
Great post 😁

They are certainly beautiful. I wish I could grow them at my home in Florida but it is too hot for them so I have to enjoy them on the road.
