More Marigolds
Posted on August 29, 2021 8:00 AM by Gerry Trout
 
Here are some other marigolds we grew this year.  I collected the seeds from Rosalie's beautiful flower bed, last summer.
 
I am downhill, looking up at these marigolds.  But they are still nearly 5 feet tall!!!  I put several in the vegetable garden, and more in our terraced beds.  As you can see:  along with my rogue zucchinis.  I love seeing their bright, cheerful flowers.
 
They make me smile every time I walk by, or look out the kitchen window.  
 
HAPPY GARDENING!!!

And they said that clay soil was difficult to grow anything in. Now we know better.
You have a perfect location.

Oh yeah, straight clay soil is tough to grow in. But we amended the soil with mushroom compost, and our own compost from the kitchen. This soil will grow anything now.
