Marigold (Tagetes erecta)

Marigolds might just be the most underrated flower in the garden and this tall Mexican variety is our favorite. The plants grow up to 4 ft. tall with dozens of big blooms in a range of colors from deep orange to yellow. Marigolds make a wonderful cut flower; they attract lots of pollinators and they have been used as a companion plant since antiquity for their ability to deter pests. While marigolds are best known for being a great companion for tomato plants, we've found them to be beneficial planted throughout the garden among all your vegetables.

Marigolds play an important role in the cultures of Native Americans who have used the plant for religious, medicinal and ceremonial purposes for thousands of years. Marigolds are perhaps best known as  flor de Muertos ("flower of the dead") in Mexico and are used extensively in the Día de los Muertos celebration on November 1-2. The fragrance of the flowers is believed to help the departed find their way home to visit their living loved-ones. 

Note: There are many types of marigold and our variety is tall. Plan for the plants to grow up to 4 ft.  

Origin: We were given the parent seed of these marigolds by a friend from Mexico whose family has grown and saved them for generations in their gardens in the state of Chiapas.

(Approximately 30 seeds per packet)

Germination rate: 90% - tested 8/30/24

Planting Instructions: Sow marigold seeds 1/8 " deep every 12" in a sunny location a week after your last frost date. Marigolds can also be started indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost and transplanted into the garden.

Good Product
I love this brand, but haven't been able to find it lately in stores in my area. It's probably the best self tanner I've used overall. Shipping from this seller was pretty quick. Color is believable- even on my pasty pale, next to white skin. If you're like me, you have to be careful of products that turn you orange. With the "dark" shade, you still need more than one application to actually be dark. To me, that's okay because you can control the color. First application gives a nice color, second application gives a deeper tan. However, I may get the ultra dark next time. I love the sprays best because they dry fast, give the best, most even, controllable application and I have better luck with these than lotions. With lotions, you are gooey and sticky and there is more stuff transferring on your clothes. Never wear white anyway when you first apply self-tanner! Best to do it before you go to bed. I really like that it is tinted. Not only do you get an instant, believable color while you wait for the self tanner to do its job, but you can see where it goes so you don't end up with streaks. Because of the tint, place an old towel on the floor as a drop cloth. Wash your hands between applying to body parts to avoid staining your palms. Yeah, the usual Self Tanning 101 stuff. You do end up with a hint of that self-tanner smell and I have used other products that are better as far as this goes, but it's nothing too bad. They all have that smell to some degree or other. Your tan lasts about 4-5 days and is easy to exfoliate off, without flaking off in weird patches. Best of all, this product is cruelty-free and no animal testing!!

A fantastic self tanning product.
I have been using this self tanner for years. So glad Amazon carries it. It's a bit tricky to use and be prepared to use in an area that is protected. Like using a drop cloth and using care with surrounding areas. It also can stain hands and feet so use gloves and cover the bottoms of your feet. The good part after all that is ,a beautiful deep rich tan. I have fooled many using this product. You cannot spray too close or it will run or not go on evenly. It also at times has faulty cans that drip and are messy. Used to that after all this time. The liquid that leaks is green. Now after all that, it does not sound all that appealing but, trying to give some guidance because it is worth the effort. I have heard rumor that it was used on the show Baywatch to give them that true sun kissed bronze look. It literally in one spraying has you tan. You can darken by using every few days. I usually spray it on before bed, let it dry well and wear overnight to let it set up and develop. It has a sort of almond scent so the smell is decent. I will mist my face alone if I just want a bit of color during the colder months before I leave the house . I just mist a bit less and let it dry. Not saying this is the most user friendly product but, will keep working around its faults to keep glowing. Best at home tan as good as a spray tan from a salon.

Beautiful bronze color!
This is a nice spray mist tan that gradually gets deeper in color within a couple hours after application. It did not make me look orange at all rather a great beach bronze color. It’s a bit difficult to spray my legs evenly all around while staying within the range/ distance it recommends in order to avoid lines, drilling and streaks. Next time I’m asking my friend to spray me. The spray mist on skin will stay on for 3 days before it begins to wear offs. I suggest exfoliating in between spray tanning

Great self-tanner -- VERY light color
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
First of all, I must confess -- I am a self-tanning junkie. Okay -- I said it. I have used MANY, MANY self-tanning products over the years. This was the first time I had purchased this brand, and I was pleased. Pleased. Not thrilled. Just pleased. The product delivers nice, good quality color. It has a pleasant feeling on the skin. Smells lovely. My ONLY complaint is this: the color was not dark or deep, which is the #1 thing I seek in a self-tanner. I want deep, dark color -- I want to appear...well....TANNED! This product simply did not deliver the dark color I was seeking. I would definitely recommend this self-tanner to anyone looking for a LIGHTLY COLORED tanning effect. This product delivers a lightly peachy-colored tan. It dries VERY quickly and evenly.

The best
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve purchased all the best brands of self tanner at Ulta. This is the only brand I’ve used that actually doesn’t have that smell we all hate. Other brands claim to not smell but they always end up smelling, but not this one. And the tan looks so natural and amazing. Repeat buyer and will be putting this on auto ship. I would recommend the lotion however, over the spray. The spray didn’t go on as even as I hoped, but I’ll just switch back to the lotion. Just thought I’d try something different this time. The lotion is amazing.
