Marigold Antigua Orange (Tagetes erecta ‘Antigua Orange’) – Vibrant Dwarf African Marigold for Beds, Borders & Containers

Bring a burst of true, sun-drenched colour to your garden with the Marigold Antigua Orange (Tagetes erecta ‘Antigua Orange’) — one of the most trusted and popular dwarf African marigold varieties available today. Bred for outstanding garden performance and consistency, this compact annual delivers season-long beauty from early summer right through to mid-autumn.

Bold Blooms, Compact Growth

Antigua Orange produces bold, fully double orange ball-shaped flowers at the ends of strong stems, while its fragrant, ferny leaves remain a rich dark green throughout the season. The naturally dwarf, well-branched habit makes it a favourite for beds and borders, with sturdy flower stems supporting stunning rounded 3-inch blooms over narrow, fern-like foliage. Reaching just 10–12 inches in height and spread, it fits beautifully into any planting scheme without overwhelming neighbouring plants.

Easy to Grow, Long-Lasting Colour

Growers appreciate the early blooming and basal branching habit, while gardeners love the mounded form entirely covered with blooms — with 3-inch fully double flower heads that hold themselves up well over the foliage. Antigua is day-length neutral, so there is no need to keep plants in the dark to promote flowering, making it an early and profuse bloomer. Simply deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage continuous flowering well into the season.

Versatile Garden Performer

Drought tolerant, heat tolerant, and deer resistant, Antigua Orange is a longtime favourite with its true orange pompom blooms and delicate fernlike foliage. It thrives in full sun and works equally well in garden beds, mixed borders, patio pots, and container combinations. It also attracts bees and butterflies, adding valuable pollinator-friendly appeal to any outdoor space.

Whether you’re a home gardener looking for reliable seasonal colour or a professional grower seeking consistent pack performance, Marigold Antigua Orange is an exceptional choice that delivers every time.
