There's lots blooming in the garden right now, but the thing that moved me most was this tiny, tiny marigold. Can't remember its name, but I think I got the seed from Johnny's Seleted Seeds. Everything about it is diminutive---flowers and ferny foliage. The diameter of the bloom is about the same as that of a pea.  I dropped it into an inkwell, but it really needed a smaller vase. Added the teaspoon to show how truly tiny the marigold is!
