Per Annies Annuals where I bought this plant:
This antique Marigold from 1870 is enjoying a revival in England where it's very popular as a cut flower. Each eye-catching mahogany-red petal is distinctively divided by a yellow stripe. The bushy 24 -36 tall uniform plant produces lots of blooms"
And it is true! A fun plant!

How fun! Perfectly striped circus clown flowers, 3” across, are borne in profusion atop this old fashioned tall heirloom Marigold.

Sweeter scented than most Marigolds, they make delightful cut flowers too. Wonderfully bushed – to 3’ tall & wide in rich soil, ‘Harlequin’ blooms for months if you remove the spent flowers.
