Calendula Flowers (Calendula officinalis)

Calendula is a well-known traditional vulnerary herb, a term used in herbalism for plants associated with the care and recovery of damaged or irritated tissue. The dried flowers have a long history of both topical and internal use.

Traditional Uses: Calendula is best known for traditional use in skin and tissue care, including preparations for cuts, scrapes, minor burns, rashes, chafing, cracked skin, and other minor skin irritation. It has also traditionally been used internally to soothe irritated digestive tissues and support digestive comfort, including occasional cramping and stomach upset. Its soothing qualities have made calendula a longstanding ingredient in herbal preparations intended to calm irritated or inflamed tissue.

How to Use: Calendula flowers can be prepared as a tea or infusion or used in tincture preparations. For topical applications, the flowers are commonly infused into oils and incorporated into salves, balms, creams, washes, and compresses.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Keep sealed to preserve freshness and potency.
