French Marigold Strawberry Blonde Seeds

French Marigold Strawberry Blonde Seeds produce a stunning display of unusual multicoloured blooms that change shade as the flowers mature. This distinctive French Marigold opens in beautiful rose-red tones before gradually developing antique pink and bicoloured shades, eventually fading towards soft primrose.

The changing colours create an impressive mixture of tones on the same plant, giving Strawberry Blonde Marigold a unique appearance throughout the flowering season. The colours become particularly pronounced during cooler weather, producing rich vintage shades that stand out beautifully in containers, borders, patio displays, and summer bedding.

Easy to grow and quick to establish, this eye-catching annual Marigold is an excellent choice for gardeners looking for something different from traditional orange and yellow varieties.
