Marigolds Growth in Shade
Calendula grows in the shade.
In the world, there is a flower called a golden lamp. Its color is bright, and people often plant it in gardens to enhance the scenery. However, everyone is confused about one thing, that is, can calendula grow in the shade?
In the shady place, the sun is rare, and its qi is cool, which is very different from that in the sunny place. The habits of the flowers are different, or they like the sun and hate the shade, or they are resistant to the shade and afraid of exposure. If you want to know the situation of calendula growing in the shade, you must explore it in detail.
Watching the natural image of the husband, there is shade in the ground, mixed with grass and trees, and mottled light and shadow. If you put calendula in here, at the beginning, its seedlings are weak and the leaves are pale. Due to the lack of light, the photosynthetic effect is not smooth, resulting in a lack of nutrient intake. However, calendula is tough. Although it is in the shade, it also strives to stretch its branches and leaves in order to obtain light.
Its stems grow gradually. Although it is not as strong as the sun, it also strives to go up. Although the leaves are thin, they try their best to expand their area, hoping to be able to add more light. When the flowering period is up, the flowers may be slightly smaller, and the color is not as bright as the sun, but their charm still exists, with a unique and elegant state.
The reason is that the moisture in the shade is often heavy, and the soil nutrients may be different from the sun. Calendula is here, and it must adapt itself to changes in the environment. Its root system may extend to a wide area to explore more nutrients; its physiological mechanism may be fine-tuned to maintain its vitality in low-light environments.
In summary, although calendula is not a very shade-tolerant flower, it can grow in moderate shade, but its growth situation and flower appearance are slightly different from those in the sun. If people plant calendula in shade, they should pay attention to its need for light, water, and fertilizer, and take care of it carefully, so that it can bloom and live up to the meaning of cultivation.
