Calendula officinalis
Calendula is a great companion plant for the border and for among vegetables - it acts as a kamikaze plant in spring, attracting aphids to it, thereby protecting other plants. Keep cutting for more blooms, and as the season progresses (and as the insects retreat) its stems become attractive as a cut flower.
