ok, one more, this one sprung up in my veggie garden early in the the spring. its native to new england and it had light blue flowers, it doesent anymore, due to the fact of them being replaced by the seed pods.

I think the blue one in the first pic is batchelor button? :unsure:

And the big orange one in the second pic looks like a zinnia? :unsure:

I'm probably wrong, so wait till someone else gives you an ID on those!! ;)

First one- marigold, bachelor button and the little white flowers are baby's breath.

2nd pic- zinnia, collendala(the yellowish many pettled one) and I see a mexican hat too.

I agree that the blue one is a Batchlor Button, The orange one could be a Zinnia , but my guess is a Gerbera Daisy, looks like mine. Gerbera jamesonii or a cultivar of Gerbera.

ah but look at the leaves, those are most certainly zinnia leaves B)

besides, I think I have that same mix cause I ended up with all the same flowers lol

There is a "red" French Marigold in the first picture, and you can't mistake the leaves for those. Even though they're called Marigolds there are red ones and those used to be much more to my taste than the yellow or gold ones. I agree with the other answers.

I don't know about the first picture, but the on the second one it's definitely a zinnia. I have been growing it in my own garden for years.

Looking at the last picture again , it almost reminds me maybe of the spent flowers of silene, but the fence? behind the plants made me think it was a climber?
