where seed are attainable of this plant,,Calendula officenalis prolifera . love to know where.. A pic is out of a old book . name may now have changed Thanks Boots

Chiltern Seeds still stock them and under that name too. http://www.edirectory.co.uk/chilternseeds/pages/moreinfo.asp?pe=DBFAJEEBQ_+calendula+officinalis+var+prolifera&cid=211

My, that is quite an interesting calendula! I imagine it would grow well here. Thanks for the thread, Boots, and the link, Baa!

Thanks Baa
believe or not , just ordered a catalog from Chiltern last night,
so great to know that they will be in it.
Weezin, thought they would look good in and about the veggie patch

My pleasure! The catalogue is a great read.

I had one of these varients pop up on C. 'Greenheart Orange' a few years ago.

I am hoping the hen and chicks look like the old pic,were you pleased with the varient of, C 'Greenheart Orange' you had.
I have had the Chiltern cat before, 91-95. and it is a great read,so easy to get it now on line, should have thought before, because before it was all post.

When the Chiltern's catalog arrives, it is like getting a new novel! I write down the offerings I find interesting, then research them. I don't believe we have anything like it in the US.

I love the Chiltern catalogue too- it just conjures up sights and smells of all those plants in my head. Who needs photos???? I love all the 'asides' too. English eccentricity at its best!

Boot, it was a surprise more than anything, here's one of my classic bad photos of it in Oct 2001 http://davesgarden.com/forums/fp.php?pid=14974

thanks Baa looks like a lot of chicks, hope Chiltern have seeds left . will find out when the catalog arrives
