萬壽菊 '淘氣瑪麗埃塔'

Planted these in a sunny patch by the front steps and they’re already showing off those mischievous dark red eyes. The compact size is perfect for a small garden—they don’t sprawl everywhere like some marigolds I’ve tried.

The dark red eyes on these golden blooms are even richer than the picture suggests, and the compact plants stayed neat without any staking. I've got them edging a border and they've been in constant flower for weeks now.

The golden yellow petals with those deep mahogany eyes are even more striking in person than in the photo. They’ve been blooming nonstop since I planted them, and the compact size fits perfectly in my small garden bed.
