Calendula has a continuing history of use over many many years. The flowers are applied to cuts and wounds to stop bleeding, and speed healing. During the American Civil War, calendula flowers were used on the battlefields in open wounds as antihemorrhagic and antiseptic, and they were used in dressing wounds to promote healing. Calendula also was used in this way during World War I
