Yardenman said:Mine were not so tall, but were enthusiastic growers.

I don't usually grow marigolds, but these two were left at a plant exchange. I felt sorry for the little "orphans". As they grew, I had to move one. I didn't know marigolds grew this large. Too much rain has affected their bloom lately, but I expect they'll perk up soon.
That's a 12" ruler laying on each one for comparison.
