Collecting Calendula (and another seed giveaway!)
I have four bundles of Calendula seeds to give away if anyone wants them. (Calendula is another one of my favorite annuals and makes itself useful not only in the garden but also if you like to make your own skin care products. Steeping the petals in a carrier oil–I like extra virgin olive oil–for several weeks first makes a wonderfully soothing salve.) If you’d like me to send you a packet (Sorry, U.S. only) leave me a comment to let me know you’re interested. The seeds have all been claimed, thank you!
In other news: I had planned to do a shop update about a week ago but came down with Bronchitis instead–oh joy! So, haven’t had any studio time since I’ve been in bed for 7 straight days–although I did watch about a billion episodes of Friday Night Lights and can’t believe how good that show was. Anyways, I hope to be back in the saddle sometime by mid week with some new rings to share with all of you.
I know most of us are feeling like spring is never going to get here, but it will, I promise. Hang in there, we’re in the homestretch now.
I would LOVE to have some seeds if you still have them.
Thanks so much for the offer!
Great! I’ll get in touch soon for your address!
The look like little suns. Beautiful!
I am ordering seeds this week and calendula would be a wonderful addition to my garden! Thanks so much 🙂
You got ’em, Lynn! I’ll be in touch soon…
I want some! Those seeds look like little worried 😉
Oops I meant wormies
Sure thing! I’ll shoot you an email soon for your address.
I just found your gorgeous blog! I’ in love with your roses… all of your flowers! You’ve inspired me to tend to my garden again this summer. It was sadly neglected last year. 🙁
But… what kind of camera do you have? More so, what kind of lens? I have a Canon entry level camera, but I cannot get such gorgeous close up shots like yours with my 50 mm lens. What are you using? I love love LOVE your photos!! 🙂

Oh, and yes yes yes to Calendula! It is the oil /essence that my son had in all his lotions, potions and shampoos when he was a baby! In fact, we still use some of the oil and the ointment from Weleda. They have a baby line that uses only Calendula. Love it. Never knew what the flowers actually looked like! Would be incredible to grow it this summer! He’s six now! (You can check out my blog to see his photos!)

I’m not sure if I am the fourth person or not. If there are any calendula seeds left, I would love some.
I just found your beautiful IG feed and blog today!
Thank you!
There beautiful I’d love some seeds.
Andrea, Kelley and Theresa–We went a bit over the 4 packet mark but I think I can scrounge up a few more. 😉 I’ll be in touch soon for your address!
I’ve seen those…before. I didn’t know they were seeds pods! I thought they were infested with worms & wouldn’t touch them. I’ll be on the look out now!!
Ha! Glad this helps! 🙂
I saw your blog can I have some seeds too to make my garden colorful with you pretty flowers
Hi Alondra, I’m so sorry but that giveaway has ended. Thank you, though, for your visit!
