Snow Princess Calendula (C. officinalis) Gorgeous 3 inch semi-double petaled, lemon-yellow flowers with dark or yellow centres. Vigorous, frost tolerant and one of the earliest to emerge in the spring. Calendula Snow Princess undergoes a remarkable colour transformation as the blooms mature. Early tightened flower buds start out a vibrant lemon yellow but then gradually unfurl into a beautiful snowy lemon-white bloom with either a dark chocolate or yellow center eye. A cold hardy species that blooms from early spring all the way through the first fall frost. Calendula is easy to grow making it a great variety for beginning gardeners.

Planting Instructions: Start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Broadcast seed on top of soil and lightly cover with dome or plastic film until emergence. Keep under full light and harden plants off 7-10 days before lining out. Seeds can be sown outdoors in the late fall to enhance spring germination.
