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.

Characteristics

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 soon. Feel free to share your ideas for new plants with us!

    How does the 100% germination guarantee work?

    If one or more of your plants haven't germinated after 30 days, you will, of course, receive a credit for the affected plant – no exceptions. The amount will be credited to your customer account and can be automatically redeemed with your next order.

    To claim the germination guarantee, please email us at hi@myeverleaf.com and attach a photo of the substrate carefully torn open in the middle, revealing the seeds. This will help us understand the possible cause and continually improve our germination rates.

    Because sustainability is important to us, we don't ship non-germinated plants individually, but instead offset them with a credit note on your next order. This way, we avoid unnecessary packaging and transport – for the sake of the environment.
