Marigold (aka: calendula) is an annual herb bearing an edible orange or yellow daisy-like flower.  It's mildly sweet and citrusy, sometimes peppery.  It goes well with other florals.
It was used in ancient times, and according to Ayurvedic healing principles is energetically cooling and has a bitter and pungent taste. In Traditional Chinese Medicine calendula (called jin zhan ju) is considered energetically neutral and drying and is used to support healthy skin.  In North American indigenous cultures, it has been used to combat the occasional upset stomach.
