This mixture delights the garden with lemon, gold and orange edible and medicinal flowers. This easy to grow flower is prolific: a 60’ row of calendula plants will produce 1 pound of dried flower heads. The dried flowers have a high resin content that can be used medicinally for tinctures and oils for salves. The flowers have anti-viral and anti-inflammatory properties that make it popular for use in tinctures or salves for healing surface skin wounds, reducing inflammation, and soothing irritated tissue. It’s a hardy annual that will continue to bloom through light frost, and will volunteer around your garden to add beauty each year. Also known as Calendula Pacific Beauty Mix.
