A fun and fancy mix of all the bright colors we love from African Marigolds! Crackerjack Mix blooms are large and full, in a range of yellows and oranges. Native to South and Central America, Marigolds are a common cultural symbol in Mexico and are often included in Dia de los Muertos celebrations in the fall, when these blooms are at their peak!
• Annual; Strong colors on sturdy stems
• Low maintenance and easy to grow
• Late season bloomer; Prefers full sun exposure
We guarantee that our seeds & bulbs will be true to type and ready to thrive. If something doesn't grow as expected, we will make it right. Questions? Call us at 855-440-2929
Is Crackerjack Mix African Marigold resistant to animals or disease?
Crackerjack Mix African Marigold is deer resistant and rabbit resistant, meaning deer and rabbits generally avoid it due to its taste, texture, or aroma.
So pretty! At first I was worried I had all green and no blooms, then all of a sudden they started blooming like crazy. I have more marigolds than I can keep up with and they attract butterflies, skippers, bees / beneficial pollinators.
I am so disappointed about these. I have planted and replanted these in flower beds, in seed trays, in pots..,everywhere…NONE have even germinated. I was very careful to keep them at the top of the soil and nothing, I mean nothing, is growing. I was super excited to grow these.

Hello JennVat. Thank you for sharing your experience and we are sorry you had these results. While marigolds are generally considered easy to grow, germination can still be affected by factors such as soil temperature, moisture levels, planting depth, and weather conditions during the establishment period. Seeds that are planted too deeply, allowed to dry out, or exposed to excessively cool or wet conditions may struggle to emerge. We are happy we were able to connect with you directly and provide a resolution that you were happy with. At Eden Brothers, we always want our customers to be successful in their gardens, and we stand behind our products. Thank you for your feedback and for giving us the opportunity to make things right. We appreciate your business and hope the rest of your garden is thriving!
These germinated very well in seed starting mix under a grow lot. They hardened off easily in April.
These grew to about 3-4 feet tall and I planted them on every border of my veg garden beds to keep away pests. They never bloomed or had a hint of a bloom
Waiting so they ended up shading too much of my garden and I had to cut them down. I planted them in May and just cut them down in August w no hint of any blooms present. Very strange bc this is supposed to be an easy flower to grow, it had full sun, and lots of water (and was next to all of my other plants which grew and bloomed fine!)

Hello, Kim
Thank you for your review of Eden Brothers! After speaking with our Customer Service Team, it seems we were able to resolve this for you. We greatly appreciate you bringing this to our attention as we strive to provide the best quality service and products to our gardeners around the country.
Prolific. Very easy to grow from direct sow. They are great companions in my veggie garden.
I still have them in the greenhouse but they are bigger at this time than any that I have grown before. Hopefully they will do as good when I get them in the ground around the garden
Great germination rate, excellent and durable plants and great blossoms. The seeds went into the ground late spring and since maturity have not stopped producing blossoms. Drought and heat tolerant. Eden Brothers delivers excellent products.
