Sturdy plants with compact habits - good for pack and pot production. All the colours come into flower within 3 to 5 days of each other. Garden performance is excellent.

Sowing Instructions

Sow on to a moist seed sowing compost in a 576 plug tray or similar size cell. Cover lightly with vermiculite and propagate at 18 to 20c. Germination should begin to take place after 7 to 10 days. Maintain a temperature of 15c after germination.

Growing Instructions

Continue to grow on the seedlings at 15c until they are established and then transfer to a 6 pack or 9cm pot when the are well developed and fill the plug tray. This should result in saleable plants in early June. Marigold should produce compact plants with out the need for growth regulators to be applied, they will however respond to B Nine if additional dwarfing is required.
