Marigold – Crackerjack Mix

Bright and bold – the staple veggie garden companion

 

Marigolds are a know Tomato companion, helping to keep pests at bay, whilst encouraging pollinators. The petals are edible and are a lovely colourful touch in salads, drink garnishes or even frozen in ice and popped in your favourite G+T. These seeds are collected from open pollinated Crackerjack Mix and will also carry traits from the other variety grown in my garden this year –  Red Marietta.

 

Seeds cannot be shipped to WA, TAS or NT

Description

Seeds:  approx 100 open pollinated Marigold seeds harvested from Crackerjack Mix
Sow: in punnets in early Spring and plant out as weather begins to warm. A great companion plant with tomatoes
Seed-saving: Allow flower to mature on plant and drop petals. Harvest seed heads when dried and brown, then open to find seeds inside.

Please keep in mind I am a home gardener and while I have been saving and sowing my own seeds myself for years, they will sometimes not grow exactly as planned. Germination rates may vary, but I am being generous with the amount of seeds in each packet to account for this.
