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.
Garden care:
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.
