Marigolds will be a real boon for your flower beds, as well as balcony boxes, pots for your home and patio all summer and autumn, delighting and surprising with their abundant blooms.
We must not forget about the medicinal, spicy-flavoring, colouring and anti-nematode properties of this wonderful plant. The leaves and flowers contain vitamins A, C, B, essential oil, and a yellow coloring matter.
In nutrition, marigolds are mainly used as spicy-flavoring plants for salads, soups, dry seasonings, sauces and drinks, to enrich dishes with vitamins and microelements. In addition, marigolds are used with great success to protect vegetable crops and fruit trees from various pests. Growing marigolds in vegetable rows protects them from parasitic worms and insects. In addition, marigolds grown in pots at home have the ability to repel insects and will save you from flies and mosquitoes throughout the summer.
