Growing First Lady Hybrid Marigold
‘First Lady’ is a hybrid marigold prized for its large, fully double blooms, uniform growth, and dependable garden performance. Carnation-like flowers are held high above tidy plants, creating a bold display while offering an easy-growing, low-maintenance addition to sunny gardens.
Plant ‘First Lady’ seeds about ¼ inch deep and space plants 8 to 12 inches apart. Grow in full sun. Germination typically takes 4 to 7 days. This heat- and drought-tolerant variety performs especially well in warm, sunny conditions.
