    Hi ,
    Think you are right on Yarrow and Marigold, I will be sure to send pics when flowers.

    Thanks

    Sorry, no, it definitely ain't a marigold (Tagetes). More on the order of Anthemis. Get a nice flower pic and someone will know it right off.

    Hi Ron,

    Thanks for your information, you may be right on the Marigold, I am not writing anything in stone for awhile here. I will follow your advice and wait for flowers to appear.

    Thanks,

    I agree on the first picture being yarrow - though it looks alot like a white one we have that is very invasive and we've heard termed common milfoil.

    The second one looks like globe thistle - if it has thistle like leaves a a globe-like flower mauve flower - then its it. (A friend had some but they weren't to our taste.)
