About the Marigold

Known as zempoalxochitl in Náhuatl — “twenty-petal flower” — the cempasúchil has been offered to the dead since Aztec times. Its vivid color and strong fragrance were believed to cut through the darkness between worlds, guiding loved ones back to the altar where they are remembered and celebrated.
