Marigold Nova ( Calendula officinalis ) 1 L Container

🌼**Calendula (Calendula officinalis)** is a bright, resilient medicinal flower with a long history of use in European folk medicine for wound healing, skin repair, and lymphatic support. Traditionally known as a plant of protection and restoration, calendula has been used both internally and externally to support the body’s natural healing processes.

**Primary actions** include vulnerary, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, lymphatic, and mild cholagogue effects. Calendula is commonly used for cuts, burns, rashes, slow-healing wounds, digestive inflammation, lymphatic stagnation, and mild liver congestion. Internally, it supports tissue repair and gut integrity; externally, it promotes skin regeneration and infection resistance.

**Affinities** include the skin, lymphatic system, digestive tract, liver, and mucous membranes, with a strong relationship to inflammation, stagnation, and tissue damage.

**Energetically**, calendula is warming, drying, and gently stimulating. It moves stagnation, encourages circulation and lymph flow, and brings warmth to areas of poor healing without creating excess heat.

**Contraindications:** Very safe for most people. Use with caution in individuals with known allergies to plants in the Asteraceae family. Traditionally avoided during pregnancy when taken internally in medicinal doses.

**Growth cycle:** Calendula is a fast-growing annual that thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It flowers generously from spring through late autumn, often producing more blooms when regularly harvested. As temperatures drop, the plant completes its life cycle, readily reseeding itself for the following season.
