French Marigold is an easy-to-grow annual that produces beautiful, wavy-petalled flowers in a warm array of gold, orange, and red colors.  A carefree plant with dense, dark green foliage, French Marigolds grow 12-20 inches tall and blooms profusely from summer to fall.  They are a popular choice for beds, borders, and pollinator gardens and are known to support a number of pollinators including bees and butterflies.

Although there are a number of flowers that are commonly referred to as marigolds, Tagetes marigolds are most familiar to American gardeners.  Many of us who grew up with parents or grandparents who gardened will remember fondly their cheerful blooms.  Brushing their distinctly scented foliage will elicit nostalgic thoughts of our earliest gardening experiences.  Indeed, my first seed saving experience was helping my grandmother collect French Marigold seeds when I was barely more than a toddler.  Now an adult, I've carried on this tradition, using French Marigolds to teach my own children the basics of seed saving.

Whether you're a seasoned veteran or first-time gardener, French Marigolds are an excellent addition to any garden.  Their ease of growth and carefree nature make them perfect for adding color to the garden without adding much effort.  What's more, French Marigold's distinctly scented foliage is prized for its ability to deter rabbits, and its roots have been demonstrated to repel nematodes, which can be a real problem for some gardeners.  Pick up a pack of our premium French Marigold seeds today and begin discovering the many virtues of this beloved garden flower.  Each packet contains a minimum of 250 seeds.
