Marigold (Calendula) Organic

A medium-sized aromatic herbaceous plant commonly found in Mediterranean regions, the Marigold or Calendula has been prized for its many virtues over the centuries. Its French name comes from the Latin "solsequier", meaning "which follows the sun", since its beautiful and unique flowers of a bright yellow-orange close at night and reopen at dawn. Its name would also be linked to the term "calendas", referring to the 1st of each month in Roman times, since the Marigold blooms almost all year round.
