The 'Golden Age' dwarf Marigold, whose Latin name is Tagetes erecta, is an annual herbaceous plant forming a small, highly branched bush that reaches 35 cm (14in) in height and 30 cm (12in) in width, producing numerous golden orange flowers from June until frost.
Its leaves, 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4in) long, are deeply cut and do not emit the characteristic scent of citrus and pepper found in other varieties. This is a valuable asset for those who love this flower but can't stand its smell, especially when used in bouquets.
Its sturdy angular stems bear large double flowers (8 to 9 cm (3 to 4in) in diameter), terminal, of golden orange colour resembling large fluffy pompons.
Its flowers will attract butterflies to your garden, bringing joy to the little ones.
This easy-to-grow dwarf Marigold is particularly appreciated in flower beds, borders, or pots on the terrace. The stems of the Golden Age Marigold can be used to create beautiful summer bouquets. Its color allows for lovely combinations with white or apricot flowers.
Originally from South America, it thrives in sunny or semi-shaded positions in any soil, even poor and dry. This variety is sometimes also known as "African Marigold".
Eco-friendly tip:
In the vegetable garden, Marigolds and African Marigolds are valuable assets in the fight against nematodes, those small microscopic worms that attack the roots of certain vegetables such as carrots. Surround your sensitive vegetables with these flowers to naturally repel these parasites. While protecting your vegetable garden, these flowers will also provide you with a good supply of cut flowers. After the first frost, bury the plants in the ground. They will continue to have a repellent effect against nematodes for a while and will also contribute to the renewal of organic matter in your soil.

Plant habit
Botanical data
Two solutions: Sow marigolds in March-April under shelter, and transplant them at a good distance (30 to 40 cm (12 to 16in)) in your flowerbeds 5 to 6 weeks after sowing. This sowing can be done in pots or in traditional seed trays for easier transplanting. Ideally, a temperature close to 18 to 20°C (64.4 to 68°F) is required for good seed germination. Germination usually takes about fifteen days. Or sow them directly in place at the end of April or early May, and then, 5 weeks later, thin out the rows to give them enough space to grow. Keep a close eye on your seedlings in the early stages, as snails are fond of these young plants. Removing faded flowers encourages repeat flowering.Â

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
