Water Needs: Keep soil evenly moist during germination (7–14 days). Once established, water moderately; these plants are moderately drought tolerant.

Planting Depth: ¼ inch. Cover seeds lightly with fine soil or compost.

Sowing Method: Broadcast seeds over prepared soil or sow in rows. For a sunny meadow effect, broadcast seeds and rake gently.

Plant Spacing: Space plants 8–12 inches apart. African Marigold benefits from wider spacing (12 inches).

Additional Tips: This mix is perfect for adding sunny warmth to any garden. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. Calendula blooms best in cooler weather and may slow in summer heat. Coreopsis is drought tolerant once established and provides long-lasting blooms. African Marigold is especially heat tolerant and blooms profusely.
