In reply to Duncan. Duncan, I'm not Katie, but saw your question. I'm not sure if she has changed the photo, but the one shown above today, Oct. 23, 2022, is calendula. I grow calendula and it looks just like those. The petals can be a variety of shades of buttery yellow to pumpkiny orange. Hope that helps.

Hello Katie,

Will you explain to me about the picture of the flowers used in your tea. These are NOT calendula flowers.
Thank you very much,
Duncan.

Hi Wellness Mama,

I just thought you might want to know that calendula tea is very effective in healing PINKEYE—brew it and keep it in the fridge for up to a week —rince eye 3 times a day as soon as you see a glossy discolouration begin …. works great…cleared up in 3 days….. good luck!

Thank you for this article! I bought organic blooming calendula tea for a baby shower tea party I gave 10 months ago, but when they arrived, the packaging said to avoid drinking while pregnant or nursing, which was half my group. I didn’t serve it. I could never get a response as to why avoid it. Then they changed their packaging to say that calendula can have negative effects to pregnancy. Still pretty vague. Now I feel better about it except the new packing also says product of China. Thank you for making it clear the benefits of internal calendula.

Is this tea safe for breastfeeding mothers? As far as safe for baby, safe for mother, safe for milk supply? Thank you!

I had never heard of calendula tea before I read this. I’m all about healthy solutions and it sounds like this is a great one. Thanks Katie for offering so many ways to use it. I’ll try it for sure!

How would you use this on a wound? For instance, my son just busted his finger nail, it actually split in the middle horizontally. Could I just drop the tincture over the wound before bandaging? I cleaned it and wrapped with turmeric and Manuka honey, but need to rebandage it later.
