Ball's Orange is a very old variety of calendula dating back to at least 1929. Bred to be a greenhouse cut flower for the florist industry, Ball's Orange was selected for its long stems which are ideal for making arrangements and bouquets. In their 1929 catalog, the George J Ball company describes Ball's Orange as a "large, deep, full-petaled flower of a glowing orange color." We'd agree, the flowers really do have a beautiful, glowing color that seems to illuminate around sunset. A must-have for the cutting garden. Grows 24 inches tall. Each packet contains a minimum of 250 seeds. Show more
