Starfire Mix marigolds are a joyful, sun-loving classic. Native to Mexico and Central America, Tagetes tenuifolia is beloved for its golden-orange single blooms, airy foliage, and compact, bushy shape.
These marigolds are more than ornamental. Hardy and easy to grow, they make excellent companion plants — naturally repelling pests and attracting pollinators. Their flowers and finely divided leaves are also edible, with a refreshing citrus-like flavour.
Marigolds hold deep cultural meaning in Mexico, where they’re known as Flores de Muerto and used in Day of the Dead celebrations as a symbol of remembrance and joy.
