Description





Our premium pot marigold seeds feature high germination rate and vigorous upright growth performance. Botanically named Calendula officinalis, pot marigold, also called calendula, is a versatile cool-season annual flower with vibrant orange and yellow single or semi-double daisy-shaped blossoms. Besides ornamental value, its fresh and dried petals are edible and widely applied in herbal remedies, skin care raw materials and natural dye making.
It has great cold resistance and can withstand light frost, blooming heavily from early spring through late autumn. It is extensively used for flower border edging, wildflower meadow mixed sowing, herb garden construction, container pot planting and fresh cut flower arrangement. Pot marigold adapts to various loose well-drained ordinary soils without high nutrient requirements. Basic watering and regular deadheading are the only daily maintenance needed, which makes it perfect for beginner gardeners, family herbal gardens and large-scale ecological landscape projects.

Planting Instructions

  1. Soil Preparation: Choose loose, breathable, well-drained loamy garden soil; avoid compacted clay soil and waterlogged low land.
  2. Sowing Method: Scatter seeds evenly on the flattened soil surface, cover with a thin 0.5cm soil layer and gently compact the soil.
  3. Germination Condition: Keep topsoil slightly moist, maintain stable temperature 12–22°C, seeds germinate within 7–14 days.
