Thompson & Morgan Kew 'Marigold' seeds

This vivacious French Marigold creates a dramatic display. Russet-red blooms are trimmed with a contrasting gold edge, picking out every petal, and deepen further in colour as the flowers mature. Marigold 'Scarlet Sophie' is an early flowering variety that keeps going right through summer with regular deadheading. Ideal for adding rich, warm colour to beds, borders, and patio pots, it's just as popular with pollinating insects as it is with gardeners — and the citrus-tasting flowers are edible too, making a lovely addition to salads, sandwiches, or seafood dishes.
