Growing Bonita Mix Marigold

Indoor Sowing: Not Recommended.

Direct Sowing: Spring.

Planting Marigold Seeds can be done by direct seeding in Spring. Direct sowing in the garden is the best method for planting the seeds.
If you are planting marigold seeds indoors, they need a warm area. Seeds need a temperature of 21-23 C. to germinate.
The best soil to use is normal garden soil, but you can also mix potting soil with some garden soil, if you are planting the seeds in a container.
Scatter the seeds on the soil surface and cover with a very thin layer of soil. If you are planting the seeds in a container, then first tamp down the soil before planting, so that the seeds don’t end up falling down to the bottom of the container
Water well. Keep the soil only very slightly moist, not wet, until germination occurs.
Germination can take a few months, depending on when you planted the seeds, as the seeds normally only start germinating in Summer.
The plant attracts butterflies and Hummingbirds
