Lemon Drop Marigolds


Lemon Drop Marigolds

I grew these from seed. One of the easiest plants you can grow & trouble free & continuously in bloom. It's also a natural bug repellent, but apparently not for skippers.

I always put some in pots in the greenhouse to ward off bugs from my tomatoes.

Same here Julia. They also bring some color to the veggie garden. How did you tomatoes do this year? I'm still eating fresh tomatoes everyday.

They did really well thanks. We have eaten tomatoes in one form or another just about everyday and I've made loads of passata for the freezer. Just a few left now, then I'll put the rest of the green ones in a drawer to ripen.
