Tagetes lemmonii 'Compacta'

Mexican bush marigold.  Herbaceous evergreen perennial, a native to Arizona and northern Mexico.  The highly aromatic, fine textured medium green leaves are arranged on brittle stems. Yellow-orange daisy-like flowers provide intense color from winter-spring. Growing up to 3 feet tall by 3 feet wide, makes it a good choice for border plantings.  Tagetes lemmonii 'Compacta' is available this week in #1 containers.
