Description
This bushy, carnation-flowered variety produces masses of pale orange blossoms. Heat resistant, and perfect for sunny beds and borders.
Start outdoors in a sunny location after all danger of frost. In mild climates plants may be started in late summer for fall-winter bloom. Or start indoors 4-6 weeks before transplanting. Keep young plants evenly moist until established. Remove faded flowers to encourage more blossoms. Marigolds require only minimal fertilizer for best flowering.
