French marigold 'Lemon Drop'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Lemon Drop is thought of as half hardy, so protect with a row cover whenever the temperatures drop.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.23 inches (0.6 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 15°C / 59°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Lemon Drop about 49 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Lemon Drop is a half hardy plant.
