Features
Characteristics
Plant Needs
Durango Outback Mix produces rich shades of orange and copper on compact, branching plants that stay 9–12 inches tall. Blooms measure about 2–2 1/2 inches across and hold their color through heat, making them reliable for summer plantings.
This French marigold variety is well suited for packs, patio pots, window boxes, and front-of-border placements where consistent height and uniform flowering matter. With regular deadheading, plants continue blooming from early summer until frost.
Marigolds thrive in full sun and average soil. They are easy to grow and adapt well to garden beds and containers alike.
