Description

Marigold Durango Mix is a premium hybrid selection of Tagetes patula (French Marigold), known for its large, vibrant, and early-blooming flowers. The Durango series boasts uniform, compact plants with strong branches and oversized, crested blooms. These blooms measure 2–2.5 inches (5–6.5 cm) in size and come in a variety of colors, including yellow, orange, red, golden, and bicolors. Durango sets the bar high for anemone-type marigolds, offering excellent branching for increased blooms and sturdy stems. This series produces consistently shaped, extra-large 2 to 2.5-inch (5 to 5.5-cm) flowers in a stunning range of colors.

For optimum growth, it is recommended to provide a full day of direct sunlight (at least 6 hours). Use well-drained, fertile loam with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. Keep plants 20-25 cm apart to ensure proper air circulation. Water moderately and avoid overwatering. Apply a balanced NPK (such as 10:10:10) or organic fertilizer every 2-3 weeks.
