'Red Cherry' is a stunning French Marigold that produces crested, double flowers in a deep, rich shade of mahogany-red. As the flowers mature, they develop warm, rusty-gold tips, creating a multi-tonal tapestry of colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a compact, neat variety that forms a uniform mound of ferny foliage. While it looks beautiful in a patio pot or at the front of a border, it is also a working dog in the garden.
