Calendula Neon is a showy orange garden wonder that features 2" to 3" inch ultra-fringed flower blossoms. Reverse burnt umber colored petals with umber edges surround a deep mahogany center that becomes exposed with maturity. This welcome pollinator attractant is the perfect kitchen garden companion plant as the petals are edible and widely used in the practice of herbology and natural skin care products as well as teas and tinctures. Calendula is a notably cool weather loving variety that will flush in both early spring and fall despite dying back during the height of summer and over winter. Succession planting this show stopper will ensure consistent blooms in cooler climates for cutting gardens and for professional cut flower growers. Plants grow to 24" inches and are most productive when regularly deadheaded. Packet: 50 seeds.
