How to Draw a Marigold


A marigold is an annual flower that thrives during the summer
months. These flowering plants can grow anywhere from 6 inches
to 3 feet tall, and some are even grown as herbs or for their
foliage.


Marigolds are popular in landscaping and gardens for their intense
color. Marigold flower colors range from yellow and gold to orange,
red, and even mahogany. Striped, bi-color, and creamy white
colors are not uncommon.
