3.5” pot, Calendula officinalis
Calendula in bloom is a sight to see! Besides being a beautiful plant and brightening up the entryway to our medicine garden, calendula is a powerful healer by promoting cell repair and an antiseptic. It is often used externally for bruises, burns, sores and internally for fevers and for GI issues.
