French marigold 'Golden Boy'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Golden Boy is thought of as hardy, so it can be safe to leave outdoors for the majority of winter (although if in doubt, using a row cover is often a good idea).

Aim to sow 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 1.17 inches (3.0 cm).

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Golden Boy about 35 days before your last frost date.

As Golden Boy is hardy, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
