If you’re looking to make a strong impression in the garden, Marigold African Mix delivers in full colour and height. These tall, upright plants are crowned with fully double blooms in vivid shades of yellow and orange, creating a dynamic display from early summer through to the first frost. Their sturdy stems keep flowers upright even in wind, making them a favourite for open garden beds and statement plantings.
Beyond their visual appeal, these marigolds are appreciated for their resilience. They thrive in full sun, tolerate dry conditions well, and bounce back quickly after rainfall. With a quick deadhead here and there, they’ll keep flowering generously all season long.
Another major plus? Their vibrant flowers aren’t just pretty—they’re also practical. African marigolds help deter unwanted pests like nematodes and aphids, especially when planted near vegetables or herbs. Whether you’re designing a bold border, filling containers, or mixing them into your food garden, this variety guarantees long-lasting, sun-loving impact.
