Care guide

Pot up and grow on in a well-lit and ventilated frost free environment (such as a greenhouse, coldframe or conservatory). Plant out after all risk of frost has passed. Pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier growth, and feed at regular intervals with a high-potash fertiliser throughout summer.

Planting requirements

  • Sow Tagetes indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost in a light, well-draining seed compost. Press seeds lightly into the soil but don’t cover them too deeply, as they need light to germinate.
  • Keep the compost moist and warm around 18-20°C (64-68°F); seedlings usually appear in 5-10 days. Once they have a few true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and harden off outdoors before planting out after the risk of frost has passed.
