Marigold (Calendula), also known as Bride of the Sun and Poor Man’s Saffron, is a Mediterranean native grown as an ornamental throughout the world. Like many of its botanical cousins, this member of the sunflower family produces vibrant yellow-orange flowerheads that also provide color and flavor to butter, cheese and other foods, as well as pharmaceutical drugs and hair and skin care products. Calendula powder is a concentrated form of the best the plant has to offer – phenolic acids, flavonoids, carotenoids, aroma compounds and a unique mix of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
