Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: French adj., marigold n.

Etymology: < French adj. + marigold n.

Any of several marigolds of the genus Tagetes (see marigold n. 1b); esp. any of numerous cultivated varieties of T. patula, commonly grown in gardens.The identity of the plant referred to in quot. 1548 is unclear. Turner does not list it among the ‘Names of newe founde Herbes, wherof is no mention in any olde auncient wryter’, implying that he associated the name ‘french Marigoulde’ not with the exotic Tagetes, but with an established Old World plant (perhaps a yellow pansy or wallflower).
