    These are the bushy 3’ tall & 3’ across old fashioned enormous Marigolds that have now become almost impossible to find. Used lavishly to decorate graves & altars during the “Day of the Dead” these fabulous Marigolds bear super double rich orange blooms 5” across! Long stemmed & superb for cutting they’re profuse & long blooming- from Summer through Fall! What could be better for your “Day of the Dead” celebration? Rich soil is best of course.
