How to Grow:

1. Sowing: Sow seeds directly outdoors from early spring to early summer, or in autumn for earlier blooms the following year. Lightly cover with fine soil.
2. Germination: Keep soil moist but well-drained. Germination usually occurs within 7-14 days.
3. Thinning: Once seedlings appear, thin them to 20-25cm (8-10 inches) apart for healthy growth.
4. Planting: Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Calendulas tolerate poorer soils but thrive best with occasional feeding.
5. Care: Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry between waterings. Deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage continuous flowering.
