A perennial tagetes species which smells like ripe passionfruit. It helps to repel root knot nematodes like other tagetes do, but does not have to be replanted every year. Passionfruit marigold is also much taller, approximately 1.5 m high. Passionfruit marigold is drought tolerant and pest resistant and adds a bold yellow splash to your garden.
It is hardy in frosty climates.
