Uniform, thick plants 3 - 4 feet tall. Prolific red to yellow blooms vary with the season as the burgundy flowers become streaked with yellow and then return to burgundy with the season’s temperature changes. French marigolds are commonly planted in butterfly gardens as a nectar source. The whole plant is harvested when in flower and distilled for its essential oil. The oil is used in perfumery; it is blended with sandalwood oil to produce 'attar genda' perfume. Also known as French marigold.

The spice has a unique, rather earthy flavor to Georgian cuisine, in which it is considered especially compatible with cinnamon and cloves. It is also a essential ingredient in the spice mixture khmeli-suneli, which is to Georgian cookery what garam masala is to the cookery of North India, with which Georgia shares elements of the Mughlai cuisine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n##Idyllwild##Conventional##Seed grower since 2018##\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0129\/8922\/files\/NoelandAnn210x165.jpg?2##Idyllwild was born of our joyful curiosity and celebration of nature’s diverse gifts. Following nature’s model of open dispersal and dissemination, we share these seeds with you and invite you to play in the garden of abundance. We learn from nature and she has taught us to live and think in terms of “abundance” instead of “scarcity”. Diversity - in all forms, from genetic to creative expression - is the heart of resilience. We enjoy experimenting with myriads of flavors, colors, and textures and the world opens to us in infinite possibilities. As a result, we are nourished in body, mind, and spirit.","brand":"RESTORATION SEEDS","offers":[{"title":"50 Seeds","offer_id":14812975693866,"sku":"10779","price":4.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 Seeds","offer_id":14812975726634,"sku":"15638","price":15.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0129\/8922\/products\/Marigold_RedMetamorph_LKF2004_193_3889a71b-aeba-4d95-b0f3-2d8a69b3e921.jpg?v=1494011097","url":"https:\/\/www.restorationseeds.mom\/products\/red-metamorph-marigold-patula","provider":"RESTORATION SEEDS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
