    Customer photo review of French Marigold Seeds - Panther

    These seeds were absolutely amazing. I did not go overboard with soil prep or anything like that, I just kind of threw them in the ground and hoped for the best. And wow, am I blown away with the results! They grew big and beautiful and the pollinators absolutely love them. Would definitely recommend.

    Extremely sturdy with tons of blooms. They’re doing a fantastic job of keeping the pests away. Butterflies and humming birds love them. The colors on the Panthers are beautiful! Excellent germination too:)
