Calendula Flower
Calendula officinalis

1 ounce of Calendula whole flowers and petals in a resealable bag.

Calendula, also called Marigold, is known for culinary, medicinal and magickal uses. Many use calendula in lotions, ointments and soap; some use this as a saffron substitute in rice as saffron is very expensive. Wreaths of marigolds hung over a door would prevent evil from entering. Calendula is the birth flower for those born in October and is perfect for Samhain celebrations.
