Growing instructions
Very easy to grow. Start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost, then transplant after threat of frost has passed. Alternatively, direct-sow seeds outdoors 1 inch apart, then thin to 18 inches apart once seedlings have 1-2 sets of true leaves. Marigolds prefer full sun and moderate water. Remove fading flowers to encourage a longer flowering season.
