Calendula Strawberry Blonde is an heirloom annual with petals that shift between soft blood-orange, dusty pink and strawberry tones, creating a luminous, multi-dimensional quality rarely seen in traditional calendulas. The delicate colouring makes each bloom feel almost hand-painted, drawing the eye whether grown in beds or gathered for the table.
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this variety is a working plant. Bees and beneficial insects are naturally drawn to it, making it an excellent companion for any vegetable garden. The blooms are equally generous as cut flowers, holding their colour fresh in arrangements and drying beautifully for winter posies and herbal blends that last for months.
These are open-pollinated, chemical-free seeds grown and saved in Wexford, Ireland. Every seed packet begins with certified organic stock, ensuring you're working with plants that have been thoughtfully cultivated from the start. Inside each packet you'll find practical growing tips and cooking suggestions to guide you from sowing to harvest.
Sow from spring onwards for continuous summer and autumn colour, and watch as your garden becomes both more beautiful and more alive.
