How to grow marigold from dried flowers
If you have marigolds in a planter or in your garden keep them deadheaded blossoms because they can be used to establish new plants. Wait until the blossoms fade and the plant becomes papery before trying to grow marigold from dried flowers.
Harvest them with a shear once they've dried and turned light brown. Place a container under the faded blossom such as a paper envelope or a plastic cup. Crush the blossom of a dried flower and the seeds will fall into the container.
Fill a medium-sized pot halfway with garden soil then top it with a layer of well-made compost or manure. Cover the seeds with soil and press them down. In 25 weeks they will sprout.
How to grow marigolds in pots
Once established marigolds require very little upkeep and are pest-free. Healthy marigolds require enough air movement so don't overcrowd potted marigolds.
One marigold will fill a 6-inch 15-cm pot but two or three will fill a 12-inch 30-cm pot and five or more little plants will fill an 18-inch-diameter container.
Use the one plant per one pot guideline if the pot is tiny. Fill your pot in which you want to grow marigold with good soil. Spread your seeds in the soil after spraying them with water and bury them in the soil.
If you give them enough sunlight they will thrive in your pots.
