THE COURT JESTER MARIGOLD, SWEET AND VIBRANT! ALWAYS FUN TO GROW AND WILL ADD PIZZAZZ TO ANY GARDEN!

It’s easy to see how this delightful bloom earned its name! Reminiscent of the colourful costumes worn by the lively court jester, our Court Jester French Marigolds showcase a striking red, brown, and yellow striped pattern.

These jester marigolds are truly eye-catching, with their unique striped flowers adding a distinctive touch to any garden. They make excellent cut flowers, and there’s nothing quite like them in the garden.

Bees are particularly attracted to these marigolds, and their pleasant fragrance invites more beneficial insects as well. With a mix of vibrant colours, these tall plants are a standout. I made sure to deadhead them throughout the growing season, and they continued to bloom beautifully for an extended period. This is a top-tier heirloom variety—fragrant, hardy, and absolutely charming!
