Product Information

African Marigold refers to a species of marigold that produces large, vibrant flowers in various shades. The 'Crackerjack Mix' is a specific cultivar known for its tall, robust stems and a mix of bright, bold colors.

The 'Crackerjack Mix' of African Marigold is known for its large, double flowers that come in a mix of colors including yellow, orange, gold, and sometimes red. These flowers can grow to be quite sizable, making a striking visual impact in gardens.

This cultivar typically grows quite tall, reaching heights of about 2 to 3 feet, and the flowers can have a diameter of 3 to 5 inches.

African Marigolds, including the 'Crackerjack Mix', tend to have an extended blooming period from late spring well into fall, providing an enduring display of colorful flowers.

The foliage of African Marigold is typically dark green and finely divided, providing an attractive backdrop to the vibrant flowers.

'Crackerjack Mix' African Marigolds thrive in well-drained soil and prefer full sun. They're relatively low-maintenance and can tolerate various soil conditions, though they do best in fertile, well-draining soil.

Marigolds, in general, are known to repel certain pests while attracting beneficial insects like bees and butterflies to the garden.

'Crackerjack Mix' African Marigolds are commonly used in borders, beds, and containers, adding a burst of vivid colors. They're also used for companion planting due to their pest-repelling properties.

These plants are relatively easy to grow and require minimal care. Deadheading spent flowers can encourage continued blooming, and occasional pruning helps maintain their shape.

'Crackerjack Mix' African Marigold is cherished for its large, vibrant flowers, extended blooming period, and ease of cultivation, making it a popular choice among gardeners looking to add bold colors and a cheerful vibe to their gardens.

Wildflower Planting Time Based on Region:

Southeast

  • Fall, Winter: Sowing wildflowers in Fall/Winter is the ideal time in the Southeast, with October 1 – December 31 being the best dates. The weather is ideal for starting seeds, and seedlings can grow and harden off before frost.
  • Spring: A good time to plant wildflowers, especially annual species that flower quickly. Plant after the last frost date when soil temperatures have warmed to around 55°F, typically occurring within a month or so after the final frost of winter; this ensures the seeds can germinate properly without being affected by cold weather.
  • Summer: You can plant wildflower seeds in the summer, but the hot sun can dry out the soil and stress your seedlings. Summer is a good time to plant quick-growing annual wildflowers.

 

Southwest

  • Fall: A good time to plant spring wildflowers in the desert Southwest. Fall's cooler temperatures and seasonal rains help seeds germinate. In the mountains, you can plant after spring frosts.
  • Winter: In areas that get snow, winter seeding can give seeds an advantage in the spring. 
  • Spring: A popular time to plant wildflowers in most states. You can plant after the last frost and when the soil temperature is at least 55°F. In warmer climates, you can plant at the end of the rainy season.
  • Summer: You can plant wildflower seeds in the summer, but the hot sun can dry out the soil and stress your seedlings. Summer is a good time to plant quick-growing annual wildflowers.

 

Northeast

  • Fall, Winter: The best time to plant wildflowers in the Northeast is in late fall, after the first frost but before heavy snow. This is known as dormant seeding and can take place from November to December. Cold temperatures and damp soil during the winter help wildflower seeds germinate. 
  • Spring: Plant in early spring, after the ground has thawed and soil temperatures reach around 55-65°F. This is a popular time to plant wildflowers because it's typically rainier, which helps water seedlings. 
  • Summer: You can plant wildflower seeds in the summer, but the hot sun can dry out the soil and stress your seedlings. Summer is a good time to plant quick-growing annual wildflowers.

 

Midwest

  • Fall, Winter: Plant in late fall (November–December) after the first frost. The seeds will overwinter and germinate in the spring. Fall planting is a good option for cooler climates and can give the seeds an early start in the spring. 
  • Spring: Plant in early spring (April–May) after the last frost when the soil temperature is consistently above 55°F. Spring is a popular time to plant because the soil is usually moist from rain, and you can see the wildflowers grow right away.
  • Summer: You can plant wildflower seeds in the summer, but the hot sun can dry out the soil and stress your seedlings. Summer is a good time to plant quick-growing annual wildflowers.

 

Western

  • Fall, Winter: Plant in late fall (November–December) after the first frost. The seeds will overwinter and germinate in the spring. Fall planting is a good option for cooler climates and can give the seeds an early start in the spring. 
  • Spring: Plant in early spring (April–May) after the last frost when the soil temperature is consistently above 55°F. Spring is a popular time to plant because the soil is usually moist from rain, and you can see the wildflowers grow right away.
  • Summer: You can plant wildflower seeds in the summer, but the hot sun can dry out the soil and stress your seedlings. Summer is a good time to plant quick-growing annual wildflowers.

 

Pacific Northwest

  • Fall, Winter: Plant in late fall (November–December) after the first frost. The seeds will overwinter and germinate in the spring. Fall planting is a good option for cooler climates and can give the seeds an early start in the spring. 
  • Spring: Plant in early spring (April–May) after the last frost when the soil temperature is consistently above 55°F. Spring is a popular time to plant because the soil is usually moist from rain, and you can see the wildflowers grow right away.
  • Summer: In cooler zones with higher elevation, you can plant wildflowers in late spring to early summer, after the risk of frost has passed. You can plant wildflower seeds in the summer, but the hot sun can dry out the soil and stress your seedlings. Summer is a good time to plant quick-growing annual wildflowers.

SAVE YOUR MONEY - Protection Plan was money wasted
This 'Protection Plan' proved worthless for me. I purchased it for 3yrs. When I first ordered the HP 7301 All-in-one printer, I never got the first one to work. After HOURS of debugging and online support from HP it was determined that the printer was defective and needed to be replaced (FIRST printer never did setup or work AT ALL). Recently that printer failed again after about 13 months but well within the Asurion 3yr coverage. I then spend MANY HOURS over three days before being told once again by HP that the printer needed replacement and that they WOULD replace it. After many more hours escalating to a supervisor, since I had no means to package up and return the printer myself, that they would send a replacement in advance and allow me to send the defective back in the new printer's box. I had been without printing at this point for SEVEN DAYS. After I waited TWO MORE DAYS for them to 'check inventory' for the same model, I got a call from HP informing me that I was not going to get a new printer because: I HAD ALREADY HAD ONE REPLACEMENT and that was ALL I WAS ENTITLED TO. Of course this was the original printer to replace the brand new one that was DOA on its initial delivery. I lost all count of the massive number of hours I had invested to this point before HP RENEGGED on their commitment made to me more than twice. The current status is that I have a totally useless printer, had to buy a new printer, and have been stiffed for the cost of the HP printer AND the so-called Asurion 'Protection Plan'. In my opinion, Asurion put me through every possible hurdle to deny coverage under the plan, then after agreeing multiple times to send me a replacement (I have all the chat transcripts), they RENEGGED on coverage, which I believe was their intent from the outset. The notion that I had ALREADY received a replacement and was therefor ineligible for another is ABSURD on its face. The original replacement was needed to resolve a brand new DEAD ON ARRIVAL printer!!!

Buy a lot of tech and want guaranteed coverage, look no further.
The plan was very much worth it. My son's monitor went out for the 2nd time, the first I dint have insurance, and I filed a claim and got the whole amount back after it was determined it could not be fixed. All this process took no longer than one week. Grateful and will definitely but for future purchases.
