When one of the discerning AAS judges says, “I’d love to have this in my yard!”, you know you have a winner! Super Hero™ Spry is a lovely compact (10-12 inches) French marigold with dark maroon lower petals and golden yellow upper petals perched on top of the dark green foliage. The list of winning attributes continues: a more uniform and stable color pattern, earlier to bloom and no deadheading required. These stunning blooms make any garden fit for a Super Hero!
Plant Marigold Super Hero Spry in a full sun location after all danger of frost has passed. Water daily for the first 2 weeks to get established, then as needed for your area. Plants are quite drought tolerant once established but should not be allowed to wilt. Fertilize with a well-balanced fertilizer every other week. Commercial Grower Culture Info.

Compact uniform plants were covered throughout the summer in attractive flowers.
It made a wonderful low edging for our Zone 6a garden.
Jeni Cullen, Eden Park, Cincinnati, OH –
Adorable flowers on short, stocky stems were particularly enjoyed by kids visiting the gardens and conservatory. The plants bloomed profusely through the summer and into the fall, even in partial shade and with minimal care.
