Yes. W.H. Perron expressly lists this Calendula officinalis mix for edible use. The petals may be used fresh as a garnish or dried to add colour to certain dishes; their flavour is generally mildly peppery or bitter. Eat only flowers grown with products labelled for food crops. Flowers purchased from a florist, used in an arrangement, or treated strictly as ornamental plants may have received products that are unsuitable for food. Remove damaged parts, rinse petals gently, and try a small amount first. The edible field is therefore marked TRUE, but this does not guarantee that every decorative flower is fit to eat or replace checking all products actually applied during cultivation.
Yes. Calendula officinalis is classified as non-toxic to dogs and cats by the ASPCA, so toxicity is marked FALSE and pet friendly is marked TRUE. This classification does not mean a pet should freely eat the flowers, foliage, or seeds. A large amount of plant material may still cause digestive discomfort. Fertilizers, pesticides, growing media, and other cultivation products also carry their own risks. Keep seed packets and recently treated plants out of reach. If an animal consumes a substantial amount or develops unusual symptoms, contact a veterinarian and provide the name Calendula officinalis along with the products used in the garden. Pet-friendly status describes the plant itself, not every substance that may be present during cultivation.
