Snow Princess Calendula
Growing Snow Princess Calendula
‘Snow Princess’ is a distinctive calendula prized for its unusual creamy-white blooms and elegant changing color. Named Thompson & Morgan’s 2017 Flower of the Year, this hardy annual produces large, semi-double flowers that begin as yellow buds before opening to creamy white petals surrounding a brown or yellow central eye.
Plant ‘Snow Princess’ 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 sunny garden conditions.
Ready to bloom in about 60 days, enjoy the flowers as they open and transition from yellow buds to creamy white blooms. Plants begin flowering quickly for an early display of soft, unusual color.
Elegant, distinctive, and easy to grow, ‘Snow Princess’ is an excellent choice for ornamental beds, borders, containers, and mixed flower plantings.
