Ignite your garden with the vibrant, ever-changing blooms of Marigold Fireball. This extraordinary variety showcases multicolour flowers on a single plant, creating a visually stunning display that evolves with the changing temperatures. Perfect for premium packs, pots, and decorative containers, Fireball adds a new dimension of visual interest to any garden or patio setting.

Why Plant Marigold Fireball?

  • 🌺 Dynamic Colour Changes: Experience the magic of blooms that shift in hue as temperatures fluctuate—vivid and slow-changing in cooler weather for striking contrast, and faster yet softer transitions in warmth.

  • 🌼 Compact and Lush: With a height of 25-30 cm and a spread of 15-20 cm, these marigolds fit beautifully in small garden spaces and containers, providing dense, colourful coverage without overwhelming the space.

  • 🌞 Thrives in Full Sun: Fireball marigolds are sun lovers, making them ideal for those bright, sunny spots in your garden where other plants might falter.

Optimal Growing Conditions:

  • Sowing Time: Best planted in spring or summer to enjoy a full season of colour transformation.

  • Sow Depth: Seeds should be sown at a depth of 6mm, ensuring they are adequately covered but not too deep to impede growth.

  • Spacing: Keep plants about 5cm apart to allow for ample growth and airflow between them, fostering healthy development and vibrant blooms.

Perfect for Containers and Garden Beds:

Marigold Fireball is especially well-suited for:

  • Decorative Containers: Brighten up your patio, balcony, or front steps with pots filled with these colourful, ever-changing marigolds.
  • Garden Borders: Line your garden paths or flower beds with Fireball marigolds for a continuous display of shifting colours and textures.
  • Mixed Flower Arrangements: Incorporate Fireball blooms into bouquets or garden arrangements for a burst of dynamic colour.

Caring Tips:

  • Watering: Provide regular watering to keep the soil moist, especially in hot, dry conditions.
  • Feeding: A light application of a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at the beginning of the season can help promote robust growth and prolific blooming.

Add a Spark to Your Garden:

Marigold Fireball offers more than just beauty; it brings a lively, ever-changing spectacle to your garden or home. Its adaptability and vibrant colour shifts make it a top choice for gardeners looking to add a splash of excitement and novelty to their floral displays.
