Vanilla Fields -Monday Macro Challenge

This marigold is called vanilla fields.  I love to mix this up with the french marigolds to give it some contrast. It is cream colored and beautiful when you see the whole bush of flowers. This variety grows quite tall (2-3 feet) unlike the french marigolds.

These don’t seem to have the distinct tiny yellow flowers in the middle like the others. These also seem to attract more butterflies than the others for some reason.

I like marigold because they are in bloom all through the year. These grow on their own , I just take the  volunteer plants and put them in decent  pots.  These grow from flower heads that fall by accident and they get so crowded I keep two or three plants and throw out the others for lack of space.
