Since it is September, you can enjoy calendula planting in your garden. They are extremely easy in maintenance and self-seed. But they will never make a chaos out of your garden.
To keep your calendula blooming you need rich soil. As a rule, calendula will adapt to most any soil conditions, but … These plants don’t like dog days and very warm weather. They grow fast in fall or early spring. Very often calendula can bloom until frost.
You are welcome to take flowers from your calendula. There are two kinds of calendula – annual (don’t live more than one year) and perennial (ive more than two years).
- try to sow seeds in spring
- maintain a distance of 10 inches between the seeds
- some insects adore eating calendula, so don’t forget about protection
Good growing and blooming )))
