  • Any idea what these might be?

    They were a gift from our new neighbour in return for borrowing our mower, but they were given to him and he has no idea what they are.

        Yup, I agree with RL - French marigolds or tagetes. You will be able to tell which when they flower.
        Whooops - now what are the dogs getting up to?

            Supposed to be good for companion planting with tomatoes. Dunno why!

              I'd go with marigold- but is the 2nd piccie of the same plants?
              ...cos they sort of look a bit like the oxeye daisies I've just been picking.

              ....if it's the same plant- then just ignore me...people often do!

                  Thanks. The pics are of the same plants from different angles.
                  I never remember to grow marigolds in time for my toms, and they looked a little different to the cheap ones I had bought, so I hadn't immediately recognised them as such, but now you mention it I can see the family resemblence. I didn't have enough for all my tomatoes so they will come in useful.
