Description
Calendula officinalis
Massive and fiery orange! Many double daisy-like blooms grow 2 to 4 inches across.
Historically medicinal, the edible leaves on this giant bloom are sweet and bitter, intensifying with flavor when dried. Great plant for borders and containers. Performs best in full sun. Often self-sows, so plant it where you want it next year!
Seeds grown by Julia in Boise, Idaho.
125 seeds.
Directions: Direct sow in early spring. Or, start indoors and transplant outside after 6-8 weeks.
