      Haha.. just like I don’t know which is the calendula, I don’t know which are nasturtiums, either. 🙂 They’re all beautiful to me, though!

        Really, you’ve never eaten nasturtiums? Plant a little patch somewhere. They’re lovely, take absolutely no care, and both the leaves and blossoms are edible. They have a peppery bite similar to some varieties of arugula, and the blossoms look fantastic in summer salads.

          Hm.. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever eaten nasturtiums. But I would! Our yard is covered by the shade of an oak tree, making my attempts at growing flowers and, well, pretty much anything, a failure. I’d be willing to try nasturtiums, if they can handle shade! They sound delicious!

      Ok, which one is calendula? I love calendula oil, and use it often for sore muscles and such, but I have no idea what the flower looks like. 🙂
