When to Sow Durango Mixed Marigold Seeds

February to April

Where to Sow

Sow Durango Marigolds on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator or in a warm place and keep at a temperature between 21-25°C (70-75°F). Do not exclude light as this helps germination which usually takes 7-21 days.

What to do Next

When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant into pots or trays. Gradually acclimatise plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost has passed, 30cm (12") apart in well drained soil in full sun.

Flowers

June onwards

Handy Tip

Can be used for edging but why not try planting as large drifts in borders creating a vibrant splash of colour all summer.
