About the Marigold

From tall, large blooming, African varieties to more fragrant, compact French types, these annuals are a must have in the garden producing glowing hot colors in yellow, gold, orange, rust and bicolor. They are easy to grow from seed, drought tolerant, perfect for sunny border edges and mixed container gardens. They can also keep white-fly off tomatoes and assist in repelling deer.

Care Notes
