Growing Tips for Organic Fiesta Gitana Calendula Seeds:

1. Planting: Sow seeds directly in the garden in early spring after the last frost, or start indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date.
2. Soil: Prefers well-drained soil but is tolerant of poor to average soil conditions. A neutral to slightly acidic pH is ideal.
3. Watering: Water moderately. Calendula is drought-tolerant but prefers consistently moist soil for optimal growth.
4. Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate partial shade, especially in hot climates.
5. Maintenance: Deadhead regularly to encourage continuous blooming. Calendula is self-seeding; allow some flowers to go to seed for next year’s growth.
6. Harvesting: Harvest flowers regularly for culinary and medicinal use. Pick in the morning after the dew has dried for the best flavor and potency.

Culinary Uses and Recipes:

Calendula flowers are not only beautiful but also edible, adding a unique flavor and color to various dishes:

• Salads: Add fresh petals to salads for a pop of color and a mild, peppery flavor.
• Teas: Dried petals can be used to make a soothing herbal tea.
• Baking and Cooking: Use petals as a natural food dye in rice dishes, soups, and stews. Great for adding color to butter, cheese, and baked goods.

Recipe Idea - Calendula Tea: Steep 1-2 teaspoons of dried calendula petals in hot water for 5-10 minutes to create a calming, anti-inflammatory herbal tea. Add honey or lemon for extra flavor!

• Skin Health: Calendula is known for its anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and antibacterial properties. It's often used in salves and creams to soothe skin irritations, minor burns, cuts, and insect bites.
• Digestive Health: Calendula tea can help soothe the digestive tract and reduce symptoms of indigestion.
