Delicate vividly orange petals begin to unfurl in late June. The warm mornings and steadily increasing sunlight settle on to the intricate feathery leaves and each new bloom. The tiny seeds have been spread in a central part of the garden, settled in among strawberries, thyme, sorrel, and calendula.

Pollinators hum from bloom to bloom, the petals quiver as fuzzy buzzy bodies find their way to the rich orange pollen. We gently gather the blooms and a few leaves regularly throughout the season. Steadily, the number of blooms increase as the plants fill out and begin to branch. To ensure the most vibrant infusion, we begin the tincturing process immediately after harvesting.
