Calendula – Marigold –<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are about 30 species of bushy, fast growing annuals and woody based, evergreen perennials, in this genus. They occur in arable land, waste land, and rocky habitats from Southern Europe to Northern Africa, Canary Islands and Mediterranean. Leaves are alternate, simple, and somewhat aromatic. Daisy like flowers, with orange or yellow petals and yellow, orange, violet, purple, or brown centers, are borne over a long period, and throughout autumn into mild winters. Many of the cultivars are excellent annuals for an informal border, the flowers last well when cut.<\/p>\n
