The Root'd E003 Pansy Clear Crystal Edible Flower - 70 Seeds is a pack of bright coloured flowering seeds just waiting to be planted. The Marigold flowers, specifically the Calendula officinalis variety, are popular and versatile edible flowers known for their vibrant colours and pleasant flavour. These flowers have a range of hues, including bright yellow and orange, and are characterized by their layered petals. Marigold petals have a slightly tangy, subtly spicy, and herbal flavour with hints of citrus.
They can be used fresh or dried to add both visual appeal and a unique taste to a variety of culinary creations. Marigold petals are often used as a decorative element in salads, soups, and rice dishes. They can also be infused into teas, used to flavour vinegars or oils, or incorporated into baked goods and desserts. In addition to their culinary uses, marigold petals have been valued for their potential health benefits, such as anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties. It's important to ensure that the marigold flowers used for consumption are specifically labeled as edible, as not all varieties are suitable for culinary purposes. When sourced from reputable suppliers, marigold edible flowers can bring both visual beauty and a touch of flavour to various dishes.
Growing Notes: Marigolds require moist soil during first two weeks of growth. Thereafter, watering once a week should be enough. Water more during hot months.
