Notes
'Siam Gold F1' marigold (Tagetes erecta 'Siam Gold F1') is an annual for borders, containers, and annual beds. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It forms a clump and blooms from early to late summer. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and birds visit the fragrant flowers. Deer tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Sensation Mix cosmos, Celosia, and Red fescue.
