Unlock Abundant Blooms: Marigold Secrets for a Garden Full of Flowers!

• Marigolds are popular in India for beauty, fragrance, and easy maintenance, significant in decorations and worship.
• Horticulturist Ram Sagar advises planting marigolds in February-March and September-October for optimal growth and flowering.
• Well-drained, fertile soil mixed with compost or cow dung manure is ideal; avoid heavy, water-retaining soil.
• Ensure 5-6 hours of daily sunlight, proper watering (only when soil is dry), and regular removal of dried flowers and damaged leaves.
• Consistent care, including fertilizing every 15-20 days, promotes new growth, more blooms, and protects against pests.
