Hi, Polly,
Calendula, like many plants used as annuals, is in fact a tender perennial - but it only behaves as a perennial in warm climates. Depending upon where you live and where you grow it, it might behave like a perennial but cold weather will kill it. Generally, too, even in warm climates, it is a short-lived perennial.

Hi Kathy,

Thank you so much, that really cleared up my confusion. As i live in the north west Highlands the poor flower won't last very long!!
