Botanical name: Tagetes patula

Common name: French marigold

25 seeds per packet

A compact, free-flowering annual prized for its vivid orange, gold, red, and bicolored blooms. Plants develop a dense, branching habit and bloom heavily through the warm season, making them an excellent choice for borders, containers, vegetable gardens, and pollinator plantings.

French marigolds perform best in full sun and well-drained soil and are generally easy to grow from seed. Regular deadheading can encourage continued flowering, although many plants will bloom steadily without much attention.

The flowers attract bees and other beneficial insects, while the strongly scented foliage has made marigolds a traditional companion plant in vegetable gardens.

These seeds were grown and harvested from plants in 2026.

A colorful, easy-to-grow annual for gardens, pollinators, and summer-long blooms.

Asclepias californica review

"This site is an amazing resource! Very generous I bought seeds of several varieties, read blog posts about which seeds to clip and how, and about germination using a heat pad. Germination rates varied between the varieties, just about how I expected from the information provided on the site. I am satisfied and will be ordering more."

Asclepias verticillata review

"Used the water method to germinate. Put the seeds in water on a heat mat. After sprouting planted in pots. Germination was greater than 50%. Under lights now. Looking forward to planting outside in a few weeks."

Asclepias speciosa review

"So far so good, lots of seedlings growing right in the ground and in a plant pot. I'm not sure the seeds in the fridge will sprout, but an extra seed packet was included in my order so it's not like I lost anything. Thanks!"
