Healthy

I ordered two of these. They are really healthy and getting taller, but no flowers yet. I am hoping I will see some soon.

Harlequin Marigold Plant

Thank You, GrowJoy for the most beautiful, bright red and yellow Marigolds I've ever had! Everyone else who saw them said the same thing. They grew so fast and tall, so healthy and bushy, and are definitely my favorites! Nancy Gebhardt
