African Marigold (Tagetes Erecta Tall Sierra Yellow) - This tall variety features huge blooms that will brighten up your entire flower garden from late spring through summer and right up until frost season. Grown from Marigold seeds, these annuals are tireless bloomers with giant blooms that are a flat pompon shape. The flowers have masses of tiny petals that are curled and frilly making a highly textured bloom. The color and texture makes a dazzling display in the garden, border, or in a container. These big yellow Marigolds are even good for cutting and look pretty in bouquets as well! These tall African Marigolds will set new buds almost as quickly as you can cut or deadhead the spent blooms.
