French marigold "Primo" (mix)
French marigold "Primo" (mix) - Tagetes patula nana.
Earliest flowering!
Annual, height 15-20 cm.
Outstanding qualities are combined in the marigolds of the “Primo” series: early flowering, compactness and an abundance of exclusively double, large flowers of pure, richly bright color. An unsurpassed plant for the garden and various containers!
Flowering: June – September.
Marigolds are unpretentious, fast-growing, light- and heat-loving, drought-resistant plants. The optimal temperature for the growth of young plants is +18+20°C. At temperatures below +10°C, the leaves acquire an anthocyanin coating and growth stops. At -1-2°C the plants die.
Location: do not need intense sunlight, although maximum decorative value is achieved in sunny places.
This is especially true for Tagetes patula single. They do not tolerate spring and autumn frosts well.
Soil: require nutritious, well-moistened soils in the first half of summer.
Care: considered drought-resistant, but at the beginning of growth they need watering, otherwise the plants will be puny and the inflorescences will be small. Marigolds, especially erect ones, have a negative attitude towards excess moisture in the soil. In rainy weather, their large inflorescences begin to rot. And if the soil is oversaturated with water, then the plants begin to die from fungal diseases of the roots. Spring fertilization results in strong growth and delayed flowering.
Reproduction: by seeds (1.0 g = 360 seeds).
