Marigold

People consider Marigold one of the fastest-growing flowering plants. It starts flowering within about 45 to 60 days of planting the seeds. The plant needs 5 to 6 hours of sunlight daily. Well-drained soil and some light organic manure will help it grow even better. It's a great option for pujas, decorations, and for creating borders in your garden.
