This 10-inch potted Marigold is a vibrant annual flowering plant available in classic shades of yellow, orange, gold, and red. Sold in a 1.88-gallon container, it arrives well-established and ready to display or transplant into a sunny garden bed, patio planter, or container garden.

Marigolds thrive in full sun with at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight per day and perform best in well-drained soil with moderate, consistent watering. They bloom continuously from late spring through the first frost, producing large, pompom-style flower heads that attract butterflies and beneficial pollinators. The aromatic foliage naturally deters common garden pests including aphids, whiteflies, and nematodes, making them an excellent companion plant alongside tomatoes, peppers, and other vegetables.

To encourage the longest bloom season, deadhead spent flowers regularly and feed container plants with a balanced liquid fertilizer every two to three weeks. Plant outdoors only after all risk of frost has passed.
