I have only taken up gardening since retiering seven years ago.I have potted 30/40 calendula,they are about 5/7cm high. Is it worth planting them out now or try keeping them till next spring.

If they are Calendula they are a hardy annual and some may survive through the winter to flower next year. You have nothing to lose if you plant them out.

True - nothing venture, nothing win. I've never had them survive though - hope you have better luck.

Calendulas are annuals so they will not go through the winter outside. The time to plant them is March/April - sorry! If they are in a greenhouse they might last but don't hold your breath.
