Description
The marigold is an ornamental and medicinal plant from the composite family. Different varieties differ in flower color (golden yellow to orange), growing period and height. It is cultivated as an annual, is sensitive to frost and attracts many pollinators.
Non hybrid
Not frost resistant
Growing tips
Marigolds are sown directly or grown in plant pots. It is a light germinator, so you should not cover the seeds with soil. As it is sensitive to the cold, you should only sow or plant it in the bed after the Ice Saints. Pinching out withered flowers encourages the growth of new flower stems. The roots emit toxins that reduce nematode infestation of neighboring crops. The plants are also well suited as green manure.
