Marigold French Petite Mix Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perTagetes patula
Petite Mix is an extra-dwarf French Marigold producing masses of small, double flowers with distinctive crested centres in a cheerful mixture of yellow, gold, orange and red. Growing to approximately 25 cm tall, the compact, bushy plants provide abundant colour without taking up much garden space.
Ideal for borders, edging, tubs, pots and planting amongst vegetables, Petite Mix flowers generously throughout the warmer months. Marigolds are widely used as companion plants in productive gardens, attracting beneficial insects and helping to increase diversity around crops.
French Marigolds are also useful as part of nematode management, with certain Tagetes species and varieties known to suppress populations of some plant-parasitic nematodes while actively growing. At the end of the season, plants can be chopped and incorporated into the garden to add organic matter to the soil.
Approximately 120 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Spring to autumn

Planting / Sowing
Sow directly where plants are to grow or raise in trays, covering seed lightly with soil or seed-raising mix. Keep moist during germination and establishment.

Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
