The listing, ~*~* 50 ORGANIC CALENDULA "OFFICINALIS" SEEDS~*~* has ended.
Calendula "Officinalis" grows well in poor soil and loves bright sun. It has very cheerful bright orange and yellow flowers and it will "re-seed" meaning that you will get plenty more seed from this plant. It is used in a variety of skin products such as soaps,creams, lotions, salves etc. as it is a very healing herbal plant that is anti-fungal and anti-septic. This herbal plant can also be made into a tea that is good to regulate the menses. Many years ago, I learned that bees were attracted to the color yellow more than anything and this plant will attract them. Save the bees! It is also good to grow these near your tomatoes as it is considered a "companion plant". Also you can use this plant as a natural dye--getting the color yellow of course! Happy bidding as always!
