EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting vintage seed packet from the early 1910s, featuring the beautiful Calendula flowers from the Burt's Seeds Company based in New York. The intricately designed packet, adorned with delicate illustrations of Calendula blooms and the company's logo, transports us to a simpler era of gardening and connection with nature. Calendulas, also known as Marigolds, have been cultivated for their vibrant, golden-orange flowers since ancient times. They were believed to have healing properties and were used in traditional medicine and cosmetics. The seeds in this packet would have been sown in the spring, and the plants would have bloomed during the summer months, adding a splash of color to gardens and bringing joy to those who tended to them. The Burt's Seeds Company, founded in the late 1800s, was a leading seed supplier in America during the early 1900s. Their seed packets, like this one, were a testament to their commitment to providing high-quality seeds and promoting the joy of gardening. This particular packet, with its intricate design and historical significance, is a rare find and a beautiful reminder of the rich history of gardening and the connection people have had with nature for generations. As we admire the vintage charm of this Calendula seed packet, let us not forget the simple pleasure of growing our own flowers and the sense of accomplishment that comes with nurturing something from a seed to a blooming plant. Whether you're an experienced gardener or just starting out, this beautiful piece of history is a reminder of the timeless joy that gardening brings.
