Someone? The orange flower at the top of this page along band photo? Single petaled, tall and whispy. Looks like a merigold leaf, only longer and more delicate. If it's a merigold, what type?

Orange cosmos, interesting. It does have the pod like a cosmos. The flower also looks like it, but orange.
Not what a typical cosmos looks like.
Thanks...I was wondering if it was a type of calendula to use the petals in my soap making. Oh well, it is very pretty.
Thank you for your help.

I have to agree about the orange cosmos. http://www.wildflowerinformation.org/Wildflower.asp? ID=47. These are readily available and extremely easy to grow. I have them in my garden as well and are often in those cans of wildflowers.
