Many experienced gardeners always have marigolds on their plots.
These flowers are chosen not only for the aesthetic pleasure and lack of maintenance.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer, voiced at least three reasons for planting marigolds.
What do they consist of?
Almost green manure
Many people try to plant green manure, as this allows the composition and quality of the soil to be improved. However, few people know that ordinary marigolds can cope with this task without any difficulties.
If you grow other crops in their place next season, you will be surprised at the result.
Moles
If you don't want to expose your plot to the risk of being "populated" by moles, then you should simply plant marigolds on a permanent basis.
These plants will scare away moles, who will look for other places to live.
Various pests
Not everyone knows that the presence of these flowers on the site as a whole significantly reduces the number of pests of any kind. Therefore, marigolds have proven themselves as an excellent means of prevention.
