Calendula (small yellow)
Calendula is a wonderful flower for many reasons--it's great for pollinators, a great companion plant & pest deterrent, AND it's edible! It’s known to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, so it’s used as a salve and in edibles like baked goods, salads, and teas. This variety has its origins at the Colton Garden in Flagstaff, Arizona and grow great in short seasons. Calendula likes some cold stratification, so sow it it late Winter / early Spring with 1/2" of soil on top. It's also relatively cold hardy, so will last through early and late frosts. One of my favorite flowers to plant in an edible garden! Minimum 1/2 tsp of seeds included.
