7 Incredible Ways to Use Calendula Flowers

We moved to our house last fall, much to my surprise a ton of stuff popped up in my garden this year. Calendula being one. There is a ton of it so now I'm looking for ways to use it. I had no idea it was so useful! New subscriber from Canada! Love your videos.

Great video, thank you. It is such an inspirational flower. I make a lip balm with it, along with plantain, rose petals, and lemon balm. I also make a salve with it with plantain and lavender too

lovely video

Thank you for this absolutely wonderful and informative video! I will definitely use it as edible flower in one of my next videos! Thank you and I wish you a wonderful weekend!❤❤🌹🌼🌼🌷🌷🌻🌻🥀🥀🌹🌹

I sometimes make balms with concentrated calendula oil. Mixed with a little bees wax and a few essential oils. It’s so beautiful to use on the skin. It’s warming on grazes, soothes sore feet. Great for dry areas on the skin. Not yet made soap with it, but I’d love to try it in a salt scrub or bath salts. Calendula really is gold in the medicinal world. What a beautiful video. 🌼

Such pretty scenery. Lorraine

I never heard of calendula until i got into soap making.

Just curious m, is your island still varroa destructor free from your bee?

Another amazing video thanks for sharing

Another Lovely Greens video I'll be referring back to ❤ great video!

Thank you dearly for your wonderful vlogs.

I use dried Calendula in my herbal tea mixtures. It looks so colorful with mint, rose pedals and bee balm together. Thanks for a great video. New subscriber from the Prairies of Canada!

How do you make the herbal medicine in the glas? Also thank you for this video. ❤

Great Vlog - Calendula has been a pain for me in the big garden here - because it got away from us. It seeds like crazy BUT now we have cleaned it out and it has come back - after your suggestions - I am happy to harvest and try more than just salad petals. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing this amazing video 🌷🌷

Enjoyed the video and found the information quite useful.

مرحبا اصنع الزيت من كل الورود ولا نوع خاص

My goal is to make soap...to give to my sister in law; who is being treated for cancer and will hopefully make a full recovery.
Regarding your question in relation to recipes.... I saw fresh tagliatelle made with edible flowers...something I also plan to make.

Eat the green bits. That bitter will help your liver to create bile, to digest your food, prevent artery buildup, and uric acid crystal buildup in your joints.

Hi Tanya, great information! I didn't know about the menstrual, digestive and comestible use. You have a lovely garden thank you for sharing.

Im prepering olive oil with caléndula petals.

So beautiful

Morning Tanya, can you tell me where I can find you video on lavender cold press soap. I can’t find it. And was looking for the recipe for my first ever soap. Regards Kim.

Have you ever made tea with it? Just curious.

Wow flowers can be used In lots of ways im starting to make my own soap and you have taught me a great deal

Lovely video as always😀. Can I kindly ask what video editing software do you use as the quality of your videos is great!!!!👍

So informative! Great video - Thank you. Have your book 'A Woman's Garden' - LOVE it!

I don't know how else to contact you: I paid for and downloaded the Using Calendula - a guide to growing and using in skin care. No matter what I try I cannot print that document. I've tried every setting known to man/woman and the page keeps cutting off. I only have 8.5 X 11 paper, but I have a very sophisticated printer I've used for years to print with. Any suggestions?

Thanx very much

Hi,lovely greens, I have made two different salves and both, when have solidified in the jars have a dip in the middle of the jars. Can you help. What am I doing wrong? 🙏

How do i get to your web site for skin care recipes

Amazing information. Thank you! I’ll be checking your website.

Is it just called marigolds at home stores?? Same thing?

Hi, a great video thanks. searched for Resina Calendula, but none of the UK suppliers seem to have it. Can you share where you got your seeds please? Thank you. X

Hi are you Tanya Anderson who runs a popular blog, Lovely Greens which provides advice, inspiration and ideas about growing herbs, flowers and vegetables? Just asking because wasn’t sure if it was you.

I’m from Australia and find your work rather interesting. Looked up all the links in this video and I’m not sure if I can get those different types of seeds into Australia?

Also I suffer from severe chronic pain and have this rare condition called regional pain syndrome
And wanted to ask you a few questions on your instagram page in regards to natural remedies plants & vegetables please. I know you’re not a doctor but any information would be of help
🙏🙏🙏

Hello i have been growing calendula in the garden for years,this year i have already collected four cuttings dried them in the airing cupboard then rub them together with my hands to a fine mixture & mostly use for tea, i did do an essential oil steeped in 1pnt of extra virgin olive oil with one or two ounces of calendula flowers part stem one year, stood out in the sunshine for a few weeks in a translucent bottle then strain the oil with the flowers & transfer to dark bottles & store.Been awhile since i have done that.just came across your channel very interesting best wishes

But the smell of calendula cream is so strong, isn't that bad for skin?

Where can I find the Erfurter Orangefarbige Calendula seeds? thanks!
