Marigolds are perennial and annual. Marigolds have a long flowering period and a rich aroma.
Inflorescences are simple and terry.
Germination of Marigolds seeds persists for 3-4 years.
This plant repels harmful insects from the beds, which is especially liked by gardeners.
I recently planted pots of blooming Tagetes near my Hibiscus, as aphids very often appear on Hibiscus.
I will observe the result.

Marigolds need bright lighting, so they are best planted in open, sunny areas.

After wilting, the flowers must be cut.
With a strong growth of Marigolds, it is necessary to cut off half of all processes. In this case, new shoots will soon appear and flowering will resume.

In addition to repelling harmful insects, Marigolds also have healing properties.
Marigolds have a high content of essential oils, flavonoids, phytoncides, vitamins, micro and macro elements, therefore Marigolds are a valuable plant in folk medicine.

Marigolds have an antiviral effect, therefore, it is recommended to add a little of its petals to regular tea during the period of the spread of catarrhal infections.
