• Common Name: Marigold (Pot Marigold, Field Marigold, Calendula)

The Pot or Field Marigold flowers and leaves are fine for the tortoise enclosure as part of a varied diet, although they may not enjoy them.

Do not confuse with Tagetes, which is commonly called French Marigold or African Marigold and is not a suitable food.
