Description

This old fashioned ‘pot marigold' is a hardy annual producing bright orange, daisy-like flowers from May to the first frosts.

This long flowering beauty attracts butterflies, bees, hoverflies, lacewings and more, providing them with pollen and nectar right through to autumn.

Please note - These seeds should ideally be sown this season. All our packets have ‘Sow by Date’ guidance on them, this is the date the seeds should be sown in order to achieve the highest rate of germination. You will still see the same high-quality plants if sowing in seasons after the ‘Sow by Date’ but may see a reduction in germination rate

How to Guide

Sowing Indoors

For earlier flowering, sturdier plants, sow in trays of moist seed compost from February to April in gentle warmth 10-15C (50-60F). Transplant 5cm (2in) apart into other trays of compost when seedlings are large enough to handle. Gradually accustom to cooler conditions before planting out from April onwards, allowing about 20cm (8in) between plants.

Sowing Outdoors

Rake soil to provide a firm, even surface. Sow seeds thinly in pre-watered soil, lightly covering them with a little more soil. Keep moist until seedlings appear and as required in dry spells.

Sowing Distance

20cm / 8in

Potting on/Thining Out

When large enough to handle, thin seedlings to allow their development and to prevent overcrowding.
