Description
The marigold variety 'Ivory Princess' is a stylish variety in various shades of creamy white.

It can have varied flowers with different colors on the center disk, some will be light and some dark, but all petals have that beautiful creamy white color.

It is very easy to grow and delivers plenty of flowers in different sizes well into the season and can usually handle a few degrees below zero, which is absolutely fantastic. This is our cultivation expert Johanna Damm's favorite edible flower.

She usually uses these in summer salads or to decorate baked goods but her very best tip is to freeze in ice cubes.

There's no fancier way to present a drink, and the feeling of being able to serve ice cubes with 'fresh flowers' during the colder months of the year is magical.(Ivory Princess doesn't need a lot of space for its roots and is therefore perfect for growing in pots and window boxes too!)

Care and cultivation advice

Sow directly on the site when the soil is warm and workable. The variety thrives best in a sunny position but also in partial shade with nutrient-rich and rich soil with a good drainage effect. Make sure to water the soil before sowing and keep it moist throughout the germination period. (Remove overblown flowers reYellowarly for a more beautiful and longer bloom!)

This variety can also be sown in the fall. Thin out as you go along for a longer and more splendid flowering period and remember that this variety self-seeds very easily!
