Pot Marigold

Pot Marigold Calendula officinalis comes from the Mediterranean area and is a popular garden plant. It produces orange-yellow flowering heads throughout the growing season. The name Pot Marigold comes from the fact that it was once used to flavour soups and stews and it was also used as a medicine. This marigold is a hardy plant that will survive cold conditions and it grows in even the least fertile soils. [CH] {OX}
