Alpha Organic Calendula

$2.75

Massive, juicy blooms look more like Gerber daisies than pot marigolds. Their extra resin is great for medicinal use in tea or salves and smells like heaven in bouquets.

JOY MAX QUALITIES:

It has been shown to speed the healing of wounds, where it appears to have anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and antibacterial effects. This calendula contains even more resin than other varieties.

  • Once established, calendula is carefree in cool weather and will self-sow for new flower season after season unless killed off by hard freeze.

  • Potager Garden All-Star
