Marigolds! What makes them so special?
Of course they're showy, beautiful and come in multiple colours. But they have a pretty cool effect on your gardens too!
These flowers have a unique smell that can deter pests like aphids, white fly, cabbage worms and root knot nematodes.
Marigolds aren't a "one and done" solution to garden pests but they have been reported to reduce pests. They're best planted mixed in the garden or bordering your beds.
