Pinch off faded flowers to encourage more blooms. The soil needs to be well drained and not soggy. The Eskimo Marigold begins to bloom in late spring and continues to bloom until first frost. Eskimo is a white marigold with large, creamy white, double carnation type blooms that are simply stunning. ... additional information
