Calendula is the herbalist's and crafter's most versatile golden botanical — a bright, cheerful, sun-colored flower that has earned its place at the center of natural skincare, herbal salve, soap, and tea traditions across centuries of European folk herbalism. Also known as Pot Marigold, Calendula officinalis is an annual herbaceous plant native to the Mediterranean and western Europe, long cultivated in home gardens for both its beauty and its remarkable range of practical wellness and craft applications. The bright golden to deep orange petals are naturally rich in carotenoids and flavonoids — including lutein and beta-carotene (which the body converts to Vitamin A) — as well as naturally occurring fatty acids (calendic and linoleic acids) and aromatic oxygenated oils including monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes. one of the most broadly useful and gentle wellness and topical herbs in the Western tradition. Our Calendula Petals are 100% organic, cut and sifted, sourced for maximum color vibrancy and naturally occurring phytochemical potency.
