What are the different types of marigolds?

There are many varieties of Marigolds and new ones are introduced each year. Various references group the species and varieties in many different ways, such as by size, (large, semi-dwarf, dwarf) or flower shape, such as chrysanthemums or pompon types, peony types and singles.

Within each of these species there are many hybrids producing variations in color and size.
