I started with multiple 4" starter plants of Safari Yellow Marigolds from Tanasacres Nursery. Marigolds naturally repel many garden pests so I planted them all around my vegetable, herb and flower garden. Marigolds bloom all summer and are very aromatic which make them a wonderful splash of color for any garden. (right) My Safari Yellow Marigolds mixed with an orange marigold plant in a single pot.
Growing Tips: Marigolds prefer full sun and planted 4" - 12" apart (the tags will typically suggest a 12" distance between plants but they will grow much closer together and fill in very nicely). Can grow up to 12" tall. Pinch off heads of old flowers to promote new growth.
