The Durango® series is regarded worldwide as the benchmark for anemone-flowered Tagetes. The plants combine excellent branching, strong stems, and abundant flowering with uniform growth. As a result, they deliver a neat and colorful result in flowerbeds, borders, planters, pots, and public green spaces.
The first thing that stands out about Durango® Red is the intense red flower color. While many traditional marigolds are primarily known for their yellow and orange hues, this variety offers a striking alternative with warm mahogany to deep red flowers. This rich color gives the plant a luxurious and elegant appearance that contrasts beautifully with the fresh green foliage.
The flowers have a characteristic anemone-shaped structure, where a raised flower center is surrounded by decorative petals. This adds extra depth and texture to the planting and makes Durango® Red particularly attractive in both modern and classic garden designs.

Thanks to the early bloom, you can enjoy a colorful garden for months, from late spring until deep into autumn.
Durango® Red forms compact, bushy plants with excellent branching. The sturdy stems effortlessly support the large flowers and ensure that the plant maintains its shape throughout the entire season.
