SCIENTIFIC NAME:
Tagetes erecta
VARIETY:
“Queen Sophie”. Queen Sophie's dark green foliage contrasts beautifully with her abundant, fire-colored flowers. In true Queen fashion, the deep red-orange petals are edged in gold. Flowers range from 1.5" to 2.25" in diameter and continue to bloom all season long. Compact plants that attract beneficial insects. Flowers and leaves are edible and can be added as garnishes to salads or other dishes. For festive decorations, string the flowers into vibrant garlands. Seed source and photo: High Mowing Seeds. Sold in packs of 3.
POLLINATORS:
Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds will visit marigold blooms.
CULTURE:
Sun/Part Shade. Well-drained, but not especially rich soil. High nitrogen levels promote more foliage than flower production.
