  2. #Calendula is an excellent addition to any food or pollinators gardens. It's an amazing multi-purposeful annual plant that is easy to grow. It is #edible, #medicinal & is also a fave flower choice for #NaturalDye makers 😊
    It's sometimes called poor man's saffron as it can be substituted for saffron in #culinary recipes. Most British folks call it pot's gold because it's used in broths/soups.
