Bonanza is the hardest-working French marigold on the market today, though you'd never know it from its neat, compact plants. This nonstop powerhouse sets new blooms all season long when deadheaded, and the mix includes 3 sizzling colors: bright yellow, deep orange, and a gold-red bicolor. Perfect for pattern plantings or eye-catching containers, Bonanza is the one to trust for a great performance.
Just 10 to 12 inches high (in bloom) and never more than 8 inches wide, this plant begins flowering early and never looks back. The branching is excellent, bringing you more buds than you'd expect, and each one opens to a perfect 2- to 3-inch crested bloom. Long-lasting, these bright flowers signal the arrival of summer in your sunny garden or on the deck.
And Bonanza is a good choice for containers of all types. It won't get tall or rangyin fact, one of the best features of this mix is how uniform all 3 colors are. The flowers continue to set all summer, even going into fall in warm and moderate climates. And they're so easy.
Direct sow the seeds when the soil has warmed in spring, and in no time you'll see the young plants pushing through the soil. And with this mega-packet of seeds, you'll have plenty for a big planting, not to mention extras to share with gardening friends. Enjoy the ease and beauty of this lovely crested French marigold this season.
