Many people like to plant marigolds not only because they look good on the plot and do not require special care, but also because they are able to drive away many dangerous pests.
If for some reason you do not want to plant these flowers, then you can pay attention to other options.
An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh believes that marigolds can be replaced with three useful plants.
What to look out for
Calendula
The flower is in no way inferior to marigolds in its beneficial properties, so you can be sure that pests will forget the way to your site.
Calendula is an unpretentious plant and is not afraid of cold weather.
Tansy
If tansy has appeared on your plot, it is worth leaving it: many insects and even rodents are afraid of this "formidable" plant. Tansy does not require care.
You can also pay attention to the cultivated varieties of this plant.
Lavender
An interesting fact is that many believe in the ability of lavender to protect the plot from negative energy. Lavender looks quite impressive, and will also be an excellent protector of the garden from insects.
