How to grow
Sow seeds directly into garden beds in spring after the last frost, or start in punnets 4–6 weeks earlier for an early display. Lightly cover seed with soil and keep moist until germination, usually 5–10 days at 18–22°C. Transplant seedlings once strong and well developed, spacing 25–30 cm apart in a sunny position. Marigolds thrive in well-drained soil and benefit from regular deadheading to encourage continuous flowering. Avoid overwatering, as they prefer slightly dry conditions once established.
