Meet the “New World marigolds” – Fireball and companion Strawberry Blonde introduce germplasm never seen before in African or French marigolds that puts multi color blooms on the same plant. Completely new look for premium packs, pots and decorative containers. In early Spring growing conditions, flowers age and change color more slowly for maximum contrast.
