Experienced gardeners know that it is worth boldly planting flowers on the plot, without limiting yourself to the aesthetic space of the garden.
The fact is that certain plants can make the process of fighting insects much easier for you.
Three worthy options stand out in particular, says landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert for the online publication BelNovosti.
What flowers are worth paying attention to?
Calendula
It is worth noting right away that this plant can remain on the site until the frost, which is very practical. If you are trying to find a remedy that could control Colorado beetles, then this is a very worthy option.
Calendula also does a good job of protecting the area from aphids.
Nasturtium
These delicate flowers can often be seen next to pumpkin plantings: the flower perfectly protects the harvest from various insects.
Nasturtium is also effective in the fight against the Colorado potato beetle.
The flower will also be useful for various types of cabbage - nasturtium perfectly protects the crop from pests.
Catnip
First of all, it is worth noting that many knowledgeable people brew a healing drink based on this flower. Catnip is also known as an excellent remedy against fleas, aphids, various types of flies and Colorado beetles.
