$19.99
Marigold Endurance™ Sunset Gold is an interspecific hybrid marigold (a cross between French and African varieties) prized for its large, carnation-like bicolor blooms and sterile, heat-tolerant nature. It blooms continuously from late spring until frost without requiring deadheading.
Here are the key details for growing and caring for this specific variety:
Plant Profile
- Flower Type: Extra-large double, bicolor (orange with red edges) blooms up to African-sized.
- Plant Size: Grows to a compact 12--16 inches tall and wide.
- Growth Habit: Branching and upright.
- Sun Exposure: Full sun is required for optimal blooming.
Care & Maintenance
- Sterility: Because the plant doesn't produce seed, it channels all its energy into continuous blooming. The plant also "buries the dead," meaning new flowers bloom over older, faded ones.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but allow the top inch to dry out between waterings. Avoid overwatering to prevent root
