Marigold Seeds

Marigold Seeds

Marigolds are one of the easiest flowers to grow, rewarding you with months of colour from early summer until the first frosts. Their fiery flowers brighten up beds, borders, and containers, while their strong scent is known to help keep pests at bay.

With our Marigold seeds, you can grow compact French Marigolds seeds for pots or taller African Marigold seeds for big, bold, long-lasting garden displays. Try our Bonita Mixed Marigolds for bright oranges, reds and yellows; or for a dreamier, more pastel yellow, try Alumia Vanilla Cream French Marigolds instead. Just plant them in a sunny spot, and they’ll flower in no time! 

Explore our full range below, and you’ll be sure to find the right marigold for your space. Or, for even more choices, look through our complete collection of flower seeds instead. Buy Marigold seeds at Fothergill’s today.

When to Plant Marigold Seeds

Marigold seeds should be sown indoors from February to April for the best results. They need warmth to germinate, so a bright windowsill or a propagation tool like a heated propagator is ideal. Once the risk of frost has passed, the seedlings can be gradually acclimatised before being planted outdoors. 

How to Grow Marigold Seeds

Sow Marigold seeds indoors; a warm kitchen windowsill is all you need. Sow 0.5cm (1/4in) deep in trays of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F) is ideal. Keep them moist as they germinate and grow, and your seedlings should appear in 14-21 days. Transplant the seedlings 5cm (2in) apart to other trays when they grow large enough to handle – and handle by a leaf, never by the stem, to prevent damage. Grow on in cooler but not cold conditions. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts) before planting them out 30cm (1ft) apart when frosts are over.
