French Petite Marigold (Tagetes patula) is a charming, low-growing heirloom classic beloved for its compact habit and prolific, cheerful blooms. Featuring tight clusters of double, crested flowers in brilliant shades of golden yellow, fiery orange, mahogany, and warm bi-colors, it forms a dense, bushy mound of feathery, dark green foliage. An indispensable garden workhorse, it brightens up borders and containers while acting as a natural pest deterrent throughout the garden.
