Tagetes patula 'Jolly Jester' / 'Court Jester'
- Product number: 557320
- Origin: Mexico, Central America
- Latin: Tagetes patula
Striking African marigold: the flat, open flower has a propeller-shaped pattern of alternating mahogany-brown and deep-yellow petals. A vibrant, contrasting plant with an elegantly loose growth habit: height 75cm.
Single-flowered marigolds were previously not appreciated: too common, "the more double, the better..." In times when wild and original flowers are regaining attention, this type is once again highly sought after! The open flowers elegantly display their bright colors and visible flower centers. The flower is approximately 3 cm in diameter.
