Calendula tripterocarpa

Calendula tripterocarpa is a flowering plant in the marigold genus Calendula, in the daisy family, Asteraceae. It is native to Spain, the Canary Islands, North Africa and the Middle East as far as Iran, and the page classes it as a therophyte, a plant that survives the dry season as a seed. This perennial grows ten to twenty centimetres tall. Its mid-green leaves are covered with short, sticky hairs, and its many-petalled flowers are yellow or orange. The young stems stand upright at first and later hang and spread over the soil. The outermost fruits have flat wings, which makes them much broader than the fruits of Calendula arvensis. It flowers from autumn to spring. In Saudi Arabia it is used in folk medicine for minor cuts, burns and skin irritation. A 2018 study found a high phenol and flavonoid content, but the page says further study is needed to prove its traditional uses.
