🌱Yay it’s gardening season!! I plant marigolds around my vegetable garden every year. 🌼Marigolds help attract bees that help pollinate your garden 🐝 They also attract beneficial insects, such as ladybugs 🐞 🌼I am pretty positive marigolds are the reason rabbits stay away from my garden 🐇The pungent aroma keeps pests like bunnies and deer at bay. 🌼Marigolds are also low maintenance and add a pop of color to my garden. 🌼Marigolds are edible!! Toss flowers in salads or garnish cocktails! 🌼I will have plenty of marigolds in the fall in time to celebrate Dia de los Muertos. Marigolds represent the fragility of life. It is believed that the spirits of our departed loved ones come to visit during the celebration and marigolds are used to help guide the spirits with their vibrant color and scent 💀 . . 📷 raemirue #muybuenocooking #gardening #bhggarden #marigolds #springgarden #colorado #highlandsranch
