Notes
'Disco Mix Marigold' French marigold (Tagetes patula 'Disco Mix Marigold') is an annual for borders, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Fragrant flowers draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. Deer rarely make it their first choice. It also tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Mealycup sage, Cosmos, and Cornflower.
