French Marigold - Plug Tray (6)

The French Marigold is a popular, low-growing annual known for its bushy habit and vibrant, long-lasting blooms in shades of yellow, orange, and russet. Unlike the taller African varieties, French marigolds typically reach heights of 6 to 18 inches, making them ideal for garden edging, containers, and window boxes. Beyond their ornamental value, they are highly regarded for companion planting because they release thiophene, a substance that helps suppress harmful soil nematodes and deter pests like whiteflies.
