African and French marigolds are in the same family and technical differences
are important only to breeders and horticulturists.  These are the 6-pack type
bedding marigolds available at garden centers in the spring.  Pot marigolds
(e.g., calendula) are, OTOH, immanently edible.  The flowers being used as an
ingredient in stews and soups.
