Description / Crackerjack Mix Marigold Seeds
Crackerjack Mix Marigold is a bold and dependable annual that delivers a burst of sunny color all season long. This heirloom mix features large, fully double blooms in vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and gold with each flower reaching up to 4 inches across. Plants grow vigorously to 28-36 inches tall, making them ideal for the back of borders or as a bright statement in beds and cutting gardens. Crackerjack Mix Marigold is prized for its ability to thrive in heat and poor soil, bloom continuously from early summer to frost, and naturally repel garden pests like nematodes and aphids. It's a low-maintenance favorite with high visual impact.
Commonly known as African Marigold or American Marigold, Crackerjack Mix is perfect for mass plantings, pollinator gardens, and cut flower arrangements. These tall, sturdy plants make excellent bedding or border flowers and are often used in cottage gardens and edible landscapes. Absolutely stunning when paired with zinnias, cosmos, salvia, or sunflowers. Its natural pest-repelling qualities also make it an excellent companion for vegetables like tomatoes and peppers.
Crackerjack Mix Marigold prefers full sun and well-drained soil, tolerating heat, drought, and poor fertility with ease. It germinates quickly and blooms early, continuing until the first frost. What sets Crackerjack Mix apart is its combination of size, vibrant color, and resilience—delivering season-long beauty with minimal care. Whether you're growing for pollinators, bouquets, or pest control, this marigold earns its place in every sunny garden.
Direct sow marigold seed after the last frost and as soon as the soil is warm in spring or start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost and transplant after all threat of frost has passed.
