Calendula

Calendula (Calendula officinalis)
Calendula, also known as pot marigold, is a bright, cheerful flowering herb. Its vibrant orange or yellow flowers are edible and often used in salads, teas, and natural skincare. Calendula attracts beneficial insects like bees and ladybugs, making it a great companion plant.

Companion Planting:
Calendula grows well near tomatoes, cucumbers, and cabbages. It helps repel some pests and attracts pollinators, improving overall garden health.

Care Tips:

• Prefers full sun and well-drained soil.

• Water moderately; avoid overwatering.

• Deadhead flowers to encourage continuous blooming.

• Calendula is an annual, but self-seeding can provide blooms year after year.
