Calendula 'Oopsy Daisy' Seeds

Calendula 'Oopsy Daisy' Seeds

   
   
   
Hardy annuals in unusual colours but very attractive to beneficial insects such as bees and butterflies. The edible flowers are great in salads and to flavour dishes such as soups. They are superb when used to edge a border or a path, or in row for cutting in the vegetable garden where they also work as a companion plant.

Edible Flowers Guide
Choosing to grow edible flowers means you can enjoy them first outdoors as plants and then again indoors as an ingredient. Picking a handful of fresh petals to sprinkle on a salad takes seconds but transforms it into something ‘colourful, summery and special’ all in one.
