- Height 10-16 Inches
- Width 12-18 Inches
- Use as a filler when using in containers
- Hardy, colorful, drought-resistant & dependable bloomer!
If you’re familiar with growing Calendula officinalis (aka Pot Marigold, English Marigold, or common marigold), you’re probably familiar with its reputation as a hardy, colorful, drought-resistant and dependable bloomer. However, you’re also probably familiar with its ability to produce massive amounts of seeds and seedlings around your garden. This Lady Godiva® Yellow hybrid variety features large, bright-yellow double flowers that produce far fewer seeds than its officinalis counterpart.
Without all that time spent plucking seedlings out of your garden, you’ll have even more time to spend enjoying the bright blooms and visiting butterflies that Lady Godiva® offers. Like other Marigolds, this variety can withstand a light frost, and provides colorful interest from planting until the hard frosts of late fall. Lady Godiva® Yellow is a great choice for adding color in containers, borders and landscaped gardens. Use the yellow blooms and mounded habit as a “filler” plant in combination container plantings.
Lady Godiva® Yellow English Marigold Care
You can depend on Lady Godiva® to be just as easy going as other Marigolds. It is sun-loving, heat-tolerant and very easy to maintain. Plant it in a location that gets more than four hours of sun per day.
No deadheading is necessary to keep the double blooms coming all season long. Water when the top inch of soil is dry, and fertilize sparingly. Marigolds planted in the ground will require much less water than those planted in containers.
Lady Godiva® Yellow English Marigold Spacing
A hardy and vigorous grower, Lady Godiva® needs up to 12” of space in the garden. The plant performs well in combination containers, and only needs up to 6” of space when planted in a pot.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
