Tagetes tenuifolia. Signet Marigolds form compact, billowy mounds of fine-textured foliage smothered in charming dime-sized edible flowers. Our Starfire Mixture is a blend of gold, orange, yellow and bicolored Paprika. Height: 12".
Many a gardener discovered their obsession at an early age with a packet of humble marigold seeds. These old-fashioned flowers are oh-so-easy to grow and add reliable color to gardens of every size and style. Rediscover their care-free, aromatic charm, with the added bonus that their flowers are edible! Direct-sow the seed after the last spring frost date, or start indoors 4 to 6 weeks before. A good cutting flower, Marigolds are also lovely in containers and window boxes. Annual. Summer to fall flowering.
