Product Description
I love marigolds in the garden and the cutting patch. Calendula officinalis 'Indian Prince' is a deep orange with crimson backs which match the crimson centre of the flower.
I use them in brilliant-coloured arrangements and eat the flowers in salads. This is also lovely dipped in batter for garden Fritto Misto or make the flowers into excellent and effective skin-healing cream.
It will lightly self-sow.
