wrote: There are many types of Tagetes (Marigolds). The one I used as a companion plant to tomatoes is T. patula (French Marigold). Here in the West, Calendula officinalis is called Pot Marigold/English Marigold and grows to 2 ft high. Not be confused with T. patula (French Marigold) I used to grow Parsley on my windowsill years ago when I lived in a house with decent sized windows. Now, when I grow it in the ground and before winter, I pick it, run it through my blender and fill ice trays with the chopped up Parsley and keep it in the freezer to use as needed. More flavorful than store bought. Parsley is an biennial. Ajuga is easy to control since it does not spread by underground roots. Only by runners, like strawberry. It really keeps the weeds down. pmmGarak Welcome to Daves. What growing zone are you in? 1] Floribunda 'Angel Face'. It is one of the most scented roses with mauve blooms. 2] Floribunda 'Red Knockout' All blooms all summer after a short rest inbetween. |
