Plant Features

Super Hero™ Harmony Marigold is an African variety that produces small, multi-colored flowers with dark maroon lower petals with a golden yellow 'crown' of upper petals. These beauties bloom early, often and go late into the season. No dead-heading needed, and the color will last all season long! This is the showstopper of the bunch! Wild birds enjoy eating the seeds of dried blooms. 

Planting Instructions:

  • - Plant in spring after the last frost date

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 6.0-7.5

Watering Specifics:

  • - Allow the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at planting time
  • - Fertilize lightly every 4-6 weeks during the growing season

Pruning and Maintenance:

  • - Pinch back young plants to promote bushier growth

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Marigolds are generally pest-resistant

Light Requirements:

  • - Requires at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Heat-tolerant but may struggle in extreme heat without adequate water
  • - Not frost-hardy

Companion Plants for Marigolds:

  • - Tomatoes: Marigolds help repel nematodes that can damage tomato roots
  • - Peppers: The strong scent of marigolds deters aphids and other pests from pepper plants
  • - Basil: This herb benefits from marigolds' pest-repelling properties and grows well alongside them
