Benefits

Ornamental Beauty: Marigolds are prized for their vibrant colors and attractive blooms, making them popular choices for gardens, landscapes, and floral arrangements.
Natural Pest Repellent: Marigolds emit a strong scent that deters pests like aphids, mosquitoes, and nematodes, making them valuable companion plants in vegetable gardens.
Medicinal Uses: Marigolds have been used in traditional medicine for their anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and wound-healing properties. They are often included in herbal remedies and skincare products.
Edible Flowers: Marigold petals are edible and can be used to add color and flavor to salads, soups, and other dishes. They have a slightly peppery taste and are rich in antioxidants.
Pollinator Attraction: Marigolds attract beneficial pollinators like bees and butterflies to the garden, promoting biodiversity and supporting healthy ecosystems.

Care Tips

Sunlight: Plant marigolds in full sun, where they can receive at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily for optimal growth and blooming.
Watering:Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water marigolds deeply when the top inch of soil feels dry, especially during hot, dry weather.
Temperature: Marigolds thrive in warm temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Protect them from frost, as they are sensitive to cold temperatures.
Harvesting:Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming. Harvest marigold flowers for decorative or culinary purposes as needed, cutting them from the plant with sharp scissors or pruners.
