Mystery Solved


Do you remember the little sprout of a plant 
that Alex brought home in a little Styrofoam cup?
We were all guessing what it was and what
color the blooms might be!  Well, the wait it over!

  3. I think it's what we call a French Marigold in the Mother Country. Not 100% sure tho.

    2. The English Marigold looks very different, and it is a herb for treating conjunctivitis. Not a lot of people know that!
