Strawberry Blonde calendula shifts through rose, apricot, and butterscotch tones on the same plant—double blooms that light up beds and bouquets. Calendula (pot marigold) has a long herbal history for skin salves and soothing teas; petals are edible, adding saffron color to soups and rice. Plants prefer cool weather and will bloom hardest in spring and fall, reseeding if you let a few heads mature. Cut often for arrangements and the plant responds with more. If you want beauty with real herbal usefulness, this calendula earns its row and a spot on the apothecary shelf.
