The marigold can do more than you might think. In addition to being a beautiful flower that blooms long and abundantly, marigolds also attract many useful insects, thus helping to increase diversity. It keeps pests away and prevents soil fatigue, making it a staple in our vegetable gardens. It acts as a green fertiliser and its flowers can actually be eaten. The marigold is one of the most useful flowers there is.
This marigold is one of the lowest types at only 20-30cm and relatively small but very interesting flower heads... and a multitude of them.
