The #OrangeBallTree is native to #Chile.
It's been cultivated here as a popular ornamental in pollinator gardens. This flowering tree had hundreds of #pollinators feeding on it. It is a beautiful flower tree! 🧡
It's used as a cultural #MedicinalPlant too. Infusion of their leaves is used topically for the treatment of wounds, burns & ulcers.

#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.
