Lemon Drop French Marigold Seeds Reviews

Huge marigold plants
Sep 3, 2019I seeded Lemon Drops in my full-sun garden as well as in a container on a balcony with afternoon sun. In the container they grew 4 feet tall on long stems and produced abundant large flowers. In the garden they took a while to grow but have become a dense hedge of plants nearly 3 feet tall. The color of the flowers varies from golden to bright yellow. I like the variety but would not describe them as "compact"
