This is the first French variety to be developed specifically for hot weather. Hot Pak™ Mixture Marigolds create mounds of foliage and full blooms in shades of vibrant yellow, rich orange, and scarlet. Some blooms are solid colors, while others are multicolored. The blooms hang around longer than African type marigolds, providing blooms right up until the frost, and they won't fall over.
To cultivate marigold's successfully, choose a location with full sun exposure and well-draining soil. This plant is relatively low-maintenance and can tolerate hot and dry conditions once established. Water regularly during dry periods, but avoid over watering to prevent root rot. Deadheading spent flowers will encourage continuous blooming throughout the growing season.
Flowering annuals, these compact Hot Pak™ Mixture Marigold plants are 6 to 7 inches tall, versatile and fit nicely in flower beds as well as containers. But Hot Pak™ Mixture Marigolds are just as popular with vegetable gardeners as they are with flower gardeners because marigolds produce oils that harmful pests don't like. This annual variety thrives in various climatic conditions and is suitable for growing in USDA hardiness zones 9 to 11.
Marigolds, are generally considered non-toxic to humans and pets. They are safe to handle and grow in the garden. However, it's essential to avoid ingesting any plant material in large quantities, as excessive consumption may cause mild gastrointestinal discomfort.
