Tagetes Tenuifolia Orange (Tagetes tenuifolia)
Most edible marigold: Delicious citrus-tarragon flavor
Delicate appearance: Finer foliage than other marigolds
Excellent in containers: Cascading habit
The Gourmet Marigold
Signet marigolds are the chef’s choice among marigolds. The small, single flowers have a delightful citrus-tarragon flavor – genuinely delicious, not just edible. The lacy, fragrant foliage is also aromatic and attractive.
Culinary Excellence
In salads: Scatter whole flowers over salads for color and flavor.
On desserts: The citrus notes complement fruit desserts and cakes.
In savory dishes: Use as you would use tarragon – with chicken, fish, and eggs.
As garnish: The small, bright flowers make beautiful garnishes.
Garden Value
Signet marigolds have a more refined appearance than other marigolds, with delicate, ferny foliage and masses of small single flowers. They work well in containers, hanging baskets, and border edges. The strong scent repels pests while attracting beneficial insects.
Growing Tips
Treat like other marigolds – full sun, well-drained soil, deadhead for continuous bloom. They are more heat and drought tolerant than French marigolds. The plants stay compact and tidy without much maintenance.
