Open afresh your round of starry folds, Ye ardent marigolds! Dry up the moisture from your golden lips.

John Keats...


They say the scented variety are the potent breed of marigolds that deter pests.  Well my marigolds are so bright they attract everyone.  They also say that marigolds do attract slugs.

I have planted them all through out my garden and I have collected the many seeds they produce so willingly after their blight flowers have spent.

The Marigold is a very hardy little plant to have around because it does keep insects away and it is so easy to grow.  I grow them well.
