Marigolds are not only summer bloomers that set colorful accents in the garden, marigolds (also known as calendula) are often used as medicinal plants. So it is of course no wonder that many hobby gardeners are increasingly leaving a small space for the marigolds in the bed.
Planting marigolds is not rocket science at all. If you're still unsure and don't want to do anything wrong, simply watch the balcony-garden video above. Here you will not only get general information about the popular summer plant, but also helpful tips for cultivation and subsequent care. Depending on when you sow the calendula, you can expect a rich bloom in June/July.
My tip:With a bit of luck you can even achieve a second flowering in the same year. To do this, you must cut off the flowers immediately after they have faded. Much luck!!!
