Description
Prepare to be wowed by the soft apricot orange of this stunning calendula. Flowers range from apricot to creamy yellow with (mostly) chestnut brown centers. The big, double flowers are borne on tall strong stems perfect for cutting. The full flowers also make this variety a great choice for gardeners who want to use petals as an edible or for herbal tea.
