Best Season for Planting:
Plant Tagetes Patula Erecta seeds in early spring after the last frost has passed, or start them indoors 6-8 weeks beforehand. These sun-loving plants thrive in warm conditions, offering vibrant blooms throughout the summer and into early fall.
Flower Characteristics:
Tagetes Patula Erecta, commonly known as African Marigolds, feature large, pom-pom-like blooms in shades of yellow, orange, and gold. These showy flowers can grow to heights of 18-36 inches, bringing height and color to any garden setting.
Benefits:
In addition to their stunning appearance, marigolds are known for their pest-repelling properties, making them valuable companion plants in vegetable gardens. They also attract beneficial insects such as pollinators, enhancing your garden's health and diversity.
Planting Instructions:
Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep and cover lightly with soil. Keep the area moist until germination, which occurs within 7-14 days. Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow full growth and adequate air circulation.
Care Tips:
Marigolds are low-maintenance and drought-resistant once established. Water regularly during dry periods, but avoid overwatering. Deadhead regularly to encourage continuous blooms and a tidy appearance. Fertilize sparingly, as marigolds thrive in poorer soils without much added nutrients.
