How to Sow and Plant

Sow Seeds: Directly sow calendula seeds outdoors after the last frost once soil has warmed.


Planting Depth: Sow seeds about 1/4 inch deep in well-drained garden soil.


Spacing: Space plants 6–12 inches apart to allow for healthy growth and airflow.

How to Grow

Water: Keep soil evenly moist until seeds germinate; afterward water moderately — calendula tolerates some drought.


Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming throughout the season.


Soil Preference: Well-drained, fertile soil with organic matter supports healthy growth.

Tips

Start seeds indoors for an earlier bloom display outdoors.


Use containers with good drainage to prevent waterlogging.


Regular deadheading increases flower production.
