The story Marigolds is about a youthful African- American girl named Lizabeth who grew up during the Great Depression.
At the morning of the story, she's jejune and doesn't stop to suppose about her conduct.With their musketeers, Lizabeth and her family go to the yard of an senior woman, Miss Lottie, and kill her while she tends to her theater of marigolds by throwing monuments at the marigolds and yelling rude effects at her.
They also make fun of Miss Lottie's mentally impaired son, John Burke. As they run down from Miss Lottie's house after calling her an" old lady witch", Lizabeth begins to suppose about her conduct and how they affect others. latterly that night, Lizabeth hears her parents argue about jobs and plutocrat and talkabout how they feel they can not support themselves.
Lizabeth's mama works to support her family, but her father is out of a joband is worried because he believes that he, as the man of the house, should earn the plutocrat for the family. Out of shock and rage, Lizabeth sneaks over to Miss Lottie's house, ignoring her family's demurrers.
As Lizabeth realizes that the marigolds she destroyed were the only bit of stopgap and beauty Miss Lottie had left, she starts to lament her conduct. In the present, Lizabeth, who's now an grown-up, looks back on her jejune conduct with remorse and says that their hassle was the end of her innocence and nonage. Lizabeth eventually understands that the marigolds were meant to be a symbol of stopgap, and plants some of her own.
Collier said that she wrote the story when she was depressed. At this time, homosexuality was condemned, and Eugenia Collier( who is herself homosexual) appertained to it with the use of the" brightly colored" marigolds.

It normally means charm or enjoyment or in the case of food something used to add flavor (usually refers to lemon zest or orange zest which comes from shaving the peel off of the fruit)
