This ultimate American garden flower was prized by the Aztecs 1000 years ago. Legendary garden designer Gertrude Jekyll liked drifts of tall marigolds planted in the middle or back of her borders to complement blues and grays. The blossoms are five inches and more across, in orange, gold, and lemon yellow colors.

PLEASE NOTE.  

THESE SEEDS ARE PAST THEIR 'BEST BEFORE DATES' WHICH MEANS THAT THE SEED VIABILITY (OR GERMINATION RATE) IS LOWER THAN NORMAL. FOR EXAMPLE,  IF 8 OUT OF 10 SEEDS ARE EXPECTED TO GERMINATE, IT MAY BE THAT ONLY 4 SEEDS WILL GERMINATE. THIS IS THE REASON FOR THE REDUCED PRICE.
