MARIGOLD CALENDULA FLOWER PETAL HERBAL
Description:
-
Calendula officinalis, belonging to the Asteraceae family, is a fragrant, short-lived herbaceous perennial that can attain a height of nearly 2 1/2 feet. The plant features branching lax or erect stems adorned with oblong-lanceolate leaves measuring approximately 2–7 inches in length. These leaves are covered with fine hairs on both surfaces, with margins that are either entire or occasionally exhibit a waved or weakly toothed appearance. The vibrant yellow inflorescences form dense capitula or flowerheads ranging from 1 ½ to 2 ¾ inches in diameter, encircled by two rows of hairy bracts. In its natural habitat, the plant typically displays a single ring of ray florets enveloping the central disc florets. The disc florets, which are tubular and hermaphrodite, boast a more intense orange-yellow hue compared to the tridentate, peripheral ray florets. The fruit of the marigold is a thorny, curved achene.
Under favorable conditions, the plant can bloom throughout the entire year.
Common Names & Nomenclature: The term "marigold" has roots in the late 14th century, derived from "marygolde," where "Mary" likely refers to the Virgin, and "gold" denotes its vibrant color. In Old English, the flower was simply referred to as "golde."

The term "marigold" encompasses a collection of flowering plants within the Asteraceae family, with the enchanting herb calendula being one of its notable members. Also known as pot marigold, calendula originates from southern Europe and has successfully naturalized in various regions, including North America. This annual herb is characterized by its light green foliage and clusters of single or double flowers, which exhibit shades of yellow, orange, or cream.
Calendula flowers are not only visually appealing but also edible, whether consumed fresh or dried. They add a delightful color and a light, fresh flavor to soups, teas, and other beverages. Beyond its culinary uses, calendula plays a key role in the production of various cosmetics, including soaps, shampoos, hair conditioners, lotions, creams, and salves.
Cosmetic: Experiment with a novel approach by infusing entire orange marigold calendula flowerheads in oil, preferably employing the simpler solar-infusion method over several weeks. This infused oil can be incorporated into the production of salves, creams, lotions, and other topical formulations. Consider including these vibrant flowers in bath "tea" bags. The herb stands out as an excellent natural choice for crafting baby powders, soaps, shampoos, and diaper rash creams.
Decorative: Explore creative possibilities by utilizing whole orange calendula flowers in potpourri and other herbal crafts, adding a touch of natural beauty to your decorative endeavors.
Culinary: Embark on culinary experimentation by incorporating calendula into soups and homemade bone broth. Prepare a soothing tea using the entire flowers, either on their own or in combination with other botanicals, enhancing both flavor and visual appeal.
Industrial: Recognize the versatility of calendula in various industries, including food, beverages, supplements, and cosmetics, where it contributes to a wide range of products.
Safety: Exercise caution if you have a known allergy to plants in the aster family, such as ragweed, when considering the use of calendula. Prioritize safety and consult with a healthcare professional if needed.
