Erfurter Orangefarbige (Calendula officinalis ‘Erfurter Orangefarbige’) is a variety of calendula bred specifically for its medicinal virtues – astringent, vulnerary and anti-inflammatory. An ancient remedy for dermal wounds and irritation.
This variety of Pot Marigold is easy to grow and blooms early. I have other varieties planted as well but those are not even close to blooming.
My plan is to use the flower pedals for meals, just to bring some color.
