care instructions

Thinning:1 plant per pot

Pruning:Check the roots every two weeks and cut them back by about 1/3 if necessary. Remove spent flowers so the plant can focus its energy on producing new flowers.

Harvest:Harvest individual flower heads to use the petals and dry them if needed. You can also use them as fresh cut flowers: cut the whole flower with the stem just before it opens completely and place it in water.

Marigold is known for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant properties. It contains valuable ingredients such as flavonoids, carotenoids, saponins and triterpenes, which are used both in skin care and in cooking. Its soothing effect helps with skin irritations and promotes wound healing, while it helps to relieve inflammation in teas and ointments.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    ARE THE SEEDS ORGANIC?

    All seeds at Everleaf are non-GMO and organically grown as much as possible. But don't worry, the plants you grow are still free of pesticides, fungicides, insecticides, plant hormones or other suspect substances! We have tested all the plants in our range long and hard to ensure that you have a successful growing experience.

    We also offer you the option to purchase empty plant capsules from us so that you can grow your own seeds and varieties.

    CAN I USE MY OWN SEEDS?

    Sure! We not only offer filled plant capsules, but also empty capsules so you can use your own seeds.

    WHAT IS THE SUBSTRATE MADE OF?

    For our substrate we only use 100% compostable coconut fibers - completely free of peat and therefore harmless to nature.

    WILL MORE VARIETIES BE OFFERED IN THE FUTURE?

    Of course! The current range is just the beginning. We are constantly testing new varieties and plan to offer more varieties before delivery. Shortly before delivery, you will have the opportunity to select your favorite varieties.

    How does the 100% germination guarantee work?

    If after 30 days one or more of your plants have not germinated, we will replace them without exception. To take advantage of this guarantee offer, please email us at hi@myeverleaf.com and attach a picture of the substrate split in the middle and the seeds visible. This will allow us to further analyze the reason for the lack of germination and improve our germination rates in the future.

    Since sustainability is important to us, we would like to ask for your understanding that the new plants will only be included with your next order. You do not need to do anything else; we will save this information and automatically send the promised plant with your next order.
