Signet type. The foliage of these stunning plants is very finely cut and a soft green in color. The flowers are a lemon yellow with a maroon star marking in the center. Plants are up to 1 foot and just as bushy. The signet marigolds also have the best flavor if you are looking for edibles. G7-10 20 seeds.

Lemon gems

Every seed germinated as well as a couple of spares. Quick shipping and informative paperwork. LG are one of my favorites.

Easy to grow, great plant.

I’m very happy with these plants. They are growing very well in a hot, sunny portion of my garden that has relatively poor soil and not minding a bit (I do have them well mulched with wood chips and that is helping a lot!). While they were quick to bloom in the spring and are producing an abundance of flowers, they are not a show stopper compared to some marigolds. I will definitely grow these again, but will use them either in my vegetable garden, or as a companion plant to other showier varieties. Also, for those looking for edible blooms, they have a nice flavor with a very pleasant aftertaste.

Strong-scented, perfectly shaped mounds

This plant grows in a perfectly round mound. In a hot, dry site beside the sidewalk, I had mounds 2 feet across. The strong scent, to me, is less like lemon than like citronella. I planted this plant partially to keep away cucumber beetles, but perhaps it works for mosquitoes, too I haven't tried cooking with the petals, but they taste slightly bitter.
