Calendula officinalis L., whole petals, from certified organic cultivation 

History: 

Calendula is not only known as a medicinal plant, but is also a particularly lush ornamental plant in many gardens. From June onwards, it bathes many cottage gardens in bright orange. Its flowers are an excellent wound remedy, which explains the widespread use of calendula ointment. Calendula can also be used internally to relieve digestive problems and help with women's issues. After calendula was introduced from southern to central Europe, it found its place in monastery and farm gardens from the 12th century onwards. Hildegard von Bingen already appreciated the marigold and called it “Ringula” or “Ringella.” Traditionally, marigolds adorn graves in cemeteries and, with their lively growth, provide a counterpoint to death. This use has also given the marigold the name “death flower.” The name “calendula” is derived from “calendae,” the Roman term for the beginning of the month. The marigold was given this name because it blooms at the beginning of so many months, right into the fall. The marigold was also often used as a love oracle, on the one hand to pluck with the question “he loves me - he loves me not,” and on the other hand as an ointment with vinegar and honey, which, when applied before bedtime with the invocation of Saint Luke, was supposed to bring dreams of one's future lover.
