CULTURE GUIDE
CALENDULA
When to Sow ~ Spring & Autumn.
Where to Grow ~ Grow in a well-drained site in full sun
or partial shade.
How to Sow ~ Direct where to grow or sow into trays
for subsequent planting out into the garden. Place seed 4
2-3om apart. Cover with 5mm of soil. Calendula are
winter-hardy plants once they are established. They —
prefer cool conditions and will grow easily in most soils.
Care ~ Keep seedbed evenly moist during germination
period. When seedlings are large enough to handle,
transplant at 5cm spacing into a tray. Final garden
Spacing should be 30-50cm apart.
Tips ~ Regular deadheading of spent flowers helps
prevent disease and extends the flowering period of this
plant. Warm conditions tend to make the flowers smaller,
with less rows of petals.
