Pacific Beauty Mix Calendula (Calendula officinalis) is a vibrant cool-season annual blend featuring rich shades of orange, golden yellow, and soft apricot blooms. Each plant produces fully layered, daisy-like flowers on upright, branching stems, creating a bright and textured display in borders, raised beds, and dedicated cut flower gardens. Blooming in approximately 55–65 days, this mix delivers reliable early-season color and continues flowering through late spring and summer, with extended performance in mild climates. Reaching 18–24 inches tall, Pacific Beauty Mix is ideal for succession planting to maintain steady blooms throughout the season. Its sturdy stems make it an excellent choice for fresh bouquets, while the vivid petals can also be used as edible garnishes. Calendula thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, performing especially well in cooler temperatures, making it a smart addition to early spring and fall planting schedules. Whether you are designing a pollinator-friendly flower bed, building layered seasonal color, or gifting seeds to a gardener who appreciates dependable bloom production, Pacific Beauty Mix Calendula makes a practical Gift Idea for Christmas, Mother’s Day, birthdays, and spring planting celebrations. Productive, versatile, and visually striking, it remains a staple in both beginner gardens and experienced grower rotations. The Calendula is a hardy annual flower that prefers a cooler climate. This flower may return each year after reseeding itself if it is planted in the appropriate growing zone. Calendula grows particularly well in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, and if planted there it will typically reseed itself year after year. It is often referred to as an old fashioned marigold. This flower is a good cut flower. Direct sow in spring, planting just below the surface of the soil. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination. This plant can also be started indoors 5-6 weeks before the last frost of spring; these seeds germinate best in high humidity and temperatures around 70 degrees F. Germination usually occurs within 7-10 days. All our seeds are Home Grown in the USA - Isla's Garden
