Information
Tagetes patula. (T. erecta according to some sources) Is an old Marigold originally from Linnaeus' garden. The flowers are a rusty red, single and placed free above the graceful foliage. This plant gets 50-70 cm tall and gives a graceful, slightly straggling impression, far from the modern, compact, richly blooming variants. The Linnaeus Marigold is sound and hardy and blooms for a long time. The seeds were grown by Marie and Hans of Lundbo, Horn, Sweden. Portion with extra seeds due to low germination.
A portion contains about 50 seeds.
