The perfect bedding plant. This variety has an upright growth habit and produces massive double blooms in striking shades of orange and yellow, which continue throughout the summer. Marigold African Crackerjack is an annual, flowering in the same year as it is planted.
A radiant, long-lasting cut flower that is easy to grow from seed. The petals are edible with a slightly bitter, citrusy/spice flavour and are a natural food colourant. They make a pretty garnish on rice, salads, or desserts. Be prepared for butterflies and beneficial insects to visit!
