Calendula Oopsy Daisy


Calendula Oopsy Daisy

I grew these from seed. Very rewarding to see them bloom like this. That's why I love gardening.

Great flower and they're amazing, aren't they Paul? I also grew Calendula from seed (Snow Princess) and incredibly they are still blooming :)

Yes they really do brighten up the border Sheila. I have them combined with a few contrasting zinnias for a really nice affect. Have you ever used them to make tea or for their medicinal properties.

This is the first year that I've grown them, Paul, and I hadn't realised that they could be used for tea. Do you use the flowers or the leaves??

My first year too. I just read up on them. I ate a couple flowers but they weren't that great, lol!
