Tagetes patula
These crested beauties set the standard for anemone-type marigolds. Compact, bushy plants are loaded with tons of double blooms, 5-7 cm (2-3") across. Extra strong stems and great branching habit plus an excellent tolerance to summer heat. Festive colours include red tipped yellow Bolero accents, deep reds, rich yellows and tangerine. This marigold provides phenomenal colour in mass plantings, borders, walkways and container plantings.
How to Grow
These incredibly easy to grow annuals can be directly seeded in the garden in mid to late May. Sow 6 mm (1/4") deep, watering as necessary until germination occurs in roughly 7 days. Thin or transplant the seedlings to 20 cm (8") apart when they are 5-8 cm (2-3") tall. For earlier blooms start seed indoors in a soil-less mix 6 weeks before planting out time. Keep at 20 C (71F) for the 7 to 10 day germination period then grow on under lights at a slightly cooler temperature before hardening off and transplanting to a sunny site in the garden. The unusual scent of marigolds seem to repel insects and are often planted in vegetable gardens for this reason. We suggest removing spent flowers to help encourage continuous blooming.
