The Garden Gold Roll produces a radiant mix of yellow, gold, and crimson.  It is a knock-out placed along a walkway, drive, or against a garden wall.  As always, a little extra care will insure you have maximum results from your Instant Flower Garden® product.

Varieties - Sunflower (Helianthus annuus dwarf), Sulphur Cosmos (Cosmos sulphureus), Dwarf Calendula (Calendula officinalis), Blackeyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta), and California Poppy (Eschscholzia californica).

General Installation and Watering - Simply roll out the seeded mat on prepared loosened soil and water liberally.  See Garden Basics for more detailed instructions, soil preparation essentials, and other helpful tips.

Special Considerations - Yellow is the color that can be seen from the farthest distance, so you can use the Garden Gold Roll to add interest to a drab spot at the back of your yard, for example.

Where to Plant - Full to partial sun.

What I Can Expect - The Instant Flower Garden® Garden Gold Roll plants will germinate in 1 to 2 weeks depending upon conditions and soil temperature.  Patience is necessary in this phase.  Cool evenings and overcast days can delay germination.  Then, after the second set of leaves unfold, some thinning may be necessary to avoid crowding and allow for stronger mature plants.  Expect the Garden Gold Roll flowers to grow to a height of 12 to 30 inches and continue their display throughtout the season.
