Calendula (Calendula officinalis)

Description

LIMITED RELEASE! Golden Petals for Medicine, Skincare, and Pollinators

Calendula, also known as Pot Marigold, is a beloved herbal flower grown for its vibrant orange-gold blossoms and powerful medicinal and skin-soothing properties. Native to the Mediterranean and now cultivated around the world, Calendula has been used for centuries in salves, teas, tinctures, and beauty products thanks to its gentle anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal compounds.

Calendula blooms over a long season, producing cheerful, daisy-like flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and beneficial insects. The petals are edible, slightly peppery, and perfect for garnishing salads, infusing oils, or blending into skin-healing balms.

It’s also incredibly easy to grow—thriving in containers, garden beds, or borders, even in poor soil. Calendula prefers full sun, self-seeds readily, and blooms from spring through fall, offering a steady supply of petals for harvest and a splash of golden joy in any landscape.
