Flower Marigold French Red Cherry 500 Non-GMO, Heirloom Seeds delivers vibrant mahogany-red blooms with luminous golden centers that command attention in garden beds, borders, and container plantings. This early-flowering variety reaches peak bloom in approximately 60 days, enabling rapid color establishment and extended flowering throughout the growing season. Red Cherry matures to a compact 10–12 inches in height, making it exceptionally versatile for mixed plantings, edging applications, and container arrangements where substantial flower color is desired without excessive vertical growth. The variety's long blooming cycle ensures sustained visual interest while providing consistent nectar and pollen resources for garden pollinators and beneficial insects. Beyond ornamental appeal, Red Cherry functions as an effective natural pest management tool in vegetable gardens, specifically repelling squash vine borers and other common garden pests. Its flowering period attracts ladybugs, butterflies, hoverflies, and other beneficial predatory insects that support integrated pest management and overall garden ecosystem balance. Each packet contains 500 non-GMO, heirloom seeds with a reliable 70% germination rate, packaged in sustainable, eco-friendly materials that align with environmentally conscious gardening practices.
