Neat in the heat, Janie Yellow Marigold is both the earliest and most floriferous French marigold we know, earning our highest recommendation for garden performance and nonstop beauty. Beginning just 6 weeks after sowing and continuing all summer long, these sunny, 2-inch blooms drape the dwarf 8- to 10-inch plants in a soft mantle. Both the blooms and the plant keep their neat shape despite hot weather—this dwarf reaches just 8 to 10 inches high and 6 to 8 inches wide, with an exceptionally uniform habit.
Very free-blooming, Janie Yellow Marigold is a great choice for the front of the border, edging, and containers of all types. Even effective as a nematode-repellent in the vegetable garden. And the yellow blooms really bring in the butterflies.
Sow direct Janie Yellow Marigold Seeds in the garden when the soil has warmed, or start seeds indoors in late winter. Very easy to grow in the sunny garden.
