Marigold

Tagetes erecta

0 offers

African marigold (Tagetes erecta) is an annual flowering plant from the aster family native to Mexico and Central America. Growing up to two feet tall, its pinnate leaves are a light shade of green and may be slightly toothed or lobed. The bright yellow, orange-yellow, russet, or white daisy-like flowers consist of single or multiple florets encircled by a ring of broad ray petals. The African marigold is drought tolerant and prefers well-draining soil in full sun. True to its Mexican ancestry, the blooms last late into the winter and make excellent cut flowers. A great addition to any garden, the African marigold is also an excellent companion for herbs and vegetables.
