Tagetes erecta 'Orange Prince' is an annual plant growing 60 to 80 cm tall, distinguished by large double inflorescences 8–15 cm in diameter with a bright orange color. Flowers maintain their saturated hue and decorative qualities throughout the blooming period, which starts in June (or July) and continues until the first frosts.
The plant has upright, sturdy, and branched stems that ensure resistance to adverse weather conditions. Leaves are dark green, pinnately dissected, giving the bush a dense structure and a pleasant aroma.
'Orange Prince' seeds are usually sown in March–April in a greenhouse or directly into open ground at a temperature of 13–16 °C. With proper sowing, the plant develops quickly, reaching full height by mid-summer and providing bright flowering until October. Seeds are packaged in Zip-lock bag packs, ensuring seed preservation and storage convenience.
This variety is ideal for creating high flower compositions, flower beds, borders, and as cut flower material. Due to its resistance to various climatic conditions and ease of care, 'Orange Prince' is a popular choice among gardeners wishing to add a bright accent to their landscape.
