Calendula officinalis
Our Calendula (Marigold) flowers for horses and other animals can be used topically for minor wounds, skin irritations, cuts and grazes. It is the supreme skin herb and is used extensively throughout the world to support the skin and skin health. Fresh Calendula leaves and flowers can be used to make both tinctures and oils and are used in homeopathic preparations. We use Calendular flowers in many of our topical and internal supplements for horses, pets, poultry and birds.
We use it in our Mud Defender Supplement and Lotion, Cleavers and Marigold, Herb Power, Top Coat, Virex Cream, Phytobalm Cream.
