    I had this given to me a couple of weeks ago but it didn't look like this when I got it. I'd like to know what kind of plant it is and what's wrong with it? Is it mildew? It's about 1ft tall, the leaves have really wilted. Can it be revived or should I throw it away? Thanks again for all your help.

    Hi abgardeneer, thank you very much for letting me know what the name of this plant is, now I need to find out whether to keep it or toss it. I believe it has powdery mildew? I read someplace that the wind can blow the spores to other plants. I have some begonias and I don't want them to get pm. At this point, I'm not really sure what to do with this Calendula. LOL > thanks again for your help.

    ps. Can this plant be saved or should I toss it?
