Growing Tips for Your Marigold African Savannah DT Orange Sun Seeds:

Sowing: Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost or sow directly outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist at 70-75°F (21-24°C) for germination in 5-20 days.

Transplanting (if started indoors): Transplant seedlings into the garden 12-18 inches apart in a sunny location with well-drained soil after the danger of frost has passed.

Sunlight: Ensure the plants receive full sun (at least 6 hours daily) for the best and most abundant blooms.

Soil: Plant in well-drained soil. Amend with organic matter for optimal growth.

Watering: Water regularly, especially when plants are young and during dry periods. Avoid wetting foliage excessively to prevent potential fungal issues.

Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming throughout the season.
