4" African Marigold Tagetes erecta Non Gmo Vegetable Heirloom 50 Seeds for Garden Planting

50++ Jumbo 4" Orange African Marigold Seeds (Tagetes erecta) Tagetes erecta, the Aztec marigold, Mexican marigold, big marigold, cempazúchitl or cempasúchil, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Tagetes native to Mexico. Despite being native to the Americas, it is often called the African marigold. African marigolds have long been planted as an easy-to-grow annual that requires very little maintenance.


Yellow, and Orange African marigolds can add a welcome pop of color all season long. Even without the blooms, they have attractive deep green foliage.


African marigolds need well-drained soils that won't stay wet for long because most marigolds are susceptible to rot and other soil-born fungal issues.


Make sure your plants have a good amount of organic matter. They greatly benefit from regular fertilizer applications or a single application of a slow-release fertilizer.


Marigolds perform best in full sun, keeping tall plants sturdy and helping form large, dense blooms and foliage. However, in part shade or more, all parts of the plant are more susceptible to fungal diseases, such as powdery mildew.
