Product Description
Product Description
Dried Calendula Flowers, also known as Pot Marigold, are a staple botanical for natural crafters and DIY beauty lovers. Known for their vibrant yellow-orange petals, our organic Calendula flowers are carefully harvested and dried to retain their natural goodness and aesthetic beauty.
Perfect for use in natural skincare formulations, these flowers are commonly infused in carrier oils to create Calendula oil—a favourite base in balms, creams, baby products and bath oils. The infusion process involves steeping dried calendula flowers in oils to extract their beneficial properties.
Whether you’re blending your own herbal tea or making skin-soothing salves, our Calendula petals add value to every project. Herbalists utilize dried calendula in various forms, such as infused oils, topical salves, and tinctures, to harness its healing properties.
Our petals are ideal for sensitive skin and baby care, and are commonly used in body butters, lotions, bath bombs, and facial steams. Add them directly to soaps for a decorative, skin-loving finish, or steep them into a herbal tea to enjoy their gentle, earthy flavour.
With their long history of use in herbal beauty and traditional preparations, Calendula petals are one of the most versatile botanicals available—and an essential for every natural formulator’s toolkit.

Tips/Extra Information
Genuine Essential Oil of Marigold is not available and what is mistakenly sold as Oil of Marigold is in fact made from Tagetes (African Marigold).
Related/Synergistic Products
In Skin Care products it is a good idea to use the Botanical CO2 Extract and the Tincture or Infusion to gain the benefits of both the fat-soluble (Essential Oil, carotene and resin) and the water-soluble (viscous and saponins) constituents of the plant.
The combined action of these constituents produces better results.

How to grow and harvest Calendula and turn it into Calendula Oil
Growing Calendula
Calendula officinalis is a resilient plant that can bloom every month of the year in temperate climates, making it a delightful addition to any garden. The seeds of calendula are large and uniquely shaped, making them easy for children to handle and plant. You can sow calendula seeds in September to overwinter or in March/April for a spring bloom. Once established, calendula will self-sow, ensuring a continuous supply of these beautiful flowers. To thrive, calendula requires careful watering, especially in dry weather, and well-drained soil. Whether planted in a flower bed or large pots, calendula will reward you with its cheerful blooms and numerous benefits.
Harvesting and Drying Calendula
To dry calendula flowers, start by tying the stems in small bunches and hanging them upside down in a warm, dry place. Ensure the area is well-ventilated and out of direct sunlight to preserve the flowers’ vibrant color and beneficial properties. It may take several weeks for the flowers to become completely dry. Once dried, store the calendula flowers in airtight containers to maintain their quality. Dried calendula flowers can be used to make calendula tea, calendula oil, and other products. To create calendula oil, fill a jar with dried calendula flowers and cover them with a carrier oil, such as olive or coconut oil. Let the mixture steep for several weeks, shaking the jar daily, before straining and storing the oil.
