Well, I'm not sure about magickal uses but in terms of health and aromatherapy, peppermint is WONDERFUL with upset stomachs. You could make it into a tea or simply find ways to release the aroma to help calm your nerves as well. Mint has always had a soothing quality to it both physically and mentally.

As for the flowers, I don't know the specific uses for those specific flowers as I typically use what I feel works best for a spell myself; you could use the morning glories for promoting easier mornings because they typically only open when the morning comes. So it could be good for a fun spell with trying to get over not being a morning person. Haha. Marigolds maybe could be used to help with bringing out the sun on the rainier days.

I hope that helps at least a little bit!

Peppermint is an excellent addition to a bean stew. I believe in magick it's used for protection and healing, but can't be positive.
As for marigold, I have posted a recipe for a homemade anointment that helps remove scars. It's simple to make and very effective.
