Description

Interspecific marigold hybrid combining the qualities of T. patula and T. erecta; distinguished by its vigorous growth, high rusticity and luxuriant head-like inflorescences with double flowers that from mid-spring to mid-autumn lend a colourful and unique landscape accent to flowerbeds, terraces and balconies, also in mixed arrangements with other ornamental grasses. It adapts to different types of soil and also retains the colour tone of the blooms always warm and unalterable even in the most intense summer heat.
