Mari Gold Flower
The two most popular types of marigolds are African (Tagetes erecta) and French (Tagetes patula) marigolds. These annual, native-Mexican herbs bloom from early summer until the first hard frost, so the bright colors last the entire growing season. In mild climates where night temperatures do not fall below freezing for extended periods of time, marigolds bloom year-round. Bacterial wilt is one of the few problems that affects marigolds in the garden.
