Tagetes are known almost universally in North America as
marigold, or variously as Mexican marigolds, African marigolds
or French marigolds. Depending on the species, marigold foliage
has a musky, pungent scent, though some varieties have been
bred to be scentless.
Marigold Gifts
"Marigold" is derived from "Mary's
Gold", and the plant is associated with the Virgin
Mary in Christian stories. Tagetes minuta or Mexican
Marigold, a tall upright marigold plant with small
flowers, is used as a culinary herb in Peru, Ecuador,
and parts of Chile and Bolivia, where it is called
by the Incan term huacatay. |
