Overview

Bringing the traditional French Marigold up to date, 'Strawberry Blonde' is a vigorous and bushy dwarf Tagetes with fully double, bronze, yellow, peachy-pink and copper-tinted flowers, frilled to the max. A super plant for patio pots and window boxes, it's also an unusual and unexpected russety splash of colour when used in traditional border bedding schemes for a contemporary garden. Grown in individual plug cells, each plant measures about 4 - 6cm tall (from the base of the root to the top of the plant). They are ideal for keen gardeners who have a greenhouse where the plants can be grown on until they are ready for planting out in the garden once all chance of frost has passed. Please note: We grow these especially for you, so we do request that full payment is made when you place your order. See above for despatch dates. To ensure that your plants arrive in the best possible condition each pack will be despatched individually. Please also be aware that the pot in the photograph is not included.

Care guide

Pot up and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can be planted outside. They require little care, although regular deadheading will prolong the already substantial flowering period.
