Calendula blooms are a celebration of warm hues, featuring petals in shades of bright yellow and orange. The flowers are characterized by their distinct ray-like petals surrounding a central disc. The plant itself is bushy, with lance-shaped leaves that complement the radiant blossoms. Known for its profuse flowering, Calendula adds a touch of sunshine to gardens, containers, and even medicinal herb plots.

Infusions and salves made from the flowers have been traditionally used to promote healing and alleviate skin irritations.
