Do you put these in alongside your tomatoes, Peet? They're good at keeping the pests away. I always grow a few of the single variety (Naughty Marietta I usually sow) just to use in the veg patch and they brighten it up as well.

I've found these to be a great companion plant for tomatoes, but they're so quick and easy that we usually and up with several gaudy clumps scattered around the garden.
