Marigold flower seeds have 3 inch orange and yellow flowers that begin blooming just over 8 weeks after sowing. Compacted petals help shed water and attract butterflies. Deadheading will promote regular blooming through out the summer. Marigold does best with full sun and regular watering, but will survive poorer soil and drought conditions. It will continue flowering until first hard freeze, and will lightly self-sow.

Plant Marigold flower seeds 6-8 weeks before last frost, or outdoors after last frost. Do not cover, or only light cover, the seeds, but lightly tap them into the soil. Transplant seedlings when they are large enough to handle.
