It's an annual and perennial plant with the smooth, waxy and glandular stem. The genus name Calendula is a modern Latin diminutive of calendae, meaning \"little calendar\", \"little clock\" or possibly \"little weather-glass\". The common name \"marigold\" refers to the Virgin Mary. The most commonly cultivated and used member of the genus is Calendula officinalis, the pot marigold. Popular herbal and cosmetic products named \"Calendula\" invariably derive from C. officinalis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso known as \"poor man's saffron,\" the petals are edible and can be used fresh in salads or dried and used to color cheese or as a substitute for saffron.
