Marigold (Calendula officinalis) or Calendula is a perennial plant native to southern Europe. It has bright orange petals and pale green leaves. Marigold is a great source of antioxidants, flavonoids and vitamin C. Marigold is most often used to brew gold-coloured tea. The flowers are gathered from June onwards, just as they begin to bloom, and are left to dry on racks in a dark, well-ventilated place. Marigold flowers contain flavonoids, carotenoid pigments, which give them their orang colour, and an essential oil, rich in triterpenoids – thought to be responsible for its anti-inflammatory properties.
