Marigold Flowers In Mexico City

Marigolds are seen in Mexico City, Mexico, on October 29, 2025. After the rainy season, the marigold blooms arrive just in time to adorn one of Mexico's most representative traditions: Day of the Dead. Native to Mexico, its name comes from the Nahuatl word ''Cempohualxochitl,'' meaning ''flower of twenty petals.'' In pre-Hispanic times, the Mexica associate the yellow color of this flower with the sun, and therefore use it on altars, offerings, and burials dedicated to their dead.
