Marigolds Orange Glow Heart Warming Cheer

Marigolds

An annual flower showing it's pretty face in the garden, a flowering charm. Plant around vegetable beds to keep pests at bay it is said, truly amazing orange unfolds, bringing joy to any garden.

Such rich colour is extracted from the petals for use in food and textile dye. Oil extraction is known to be used as antifungal treatment and the leaves can be added to salads, so yes this beauty is not just pretty to look at but has many uses.

Did You Know: Dried Marigold petals are considered to be the poor man's saffron.

Marigolds are easy to grow, sunlight and little water an absolute gardener's delight. Great to teach children about tending a garden, watching their joy when orange flowers explore bringing success to their gardening endeavours.

With its intense color, it's no wonder the marigold is the symbol of passion and creativity. And they said that the named of Virgin Mary is where the name Mary's Gold came from, and this is a flower that was used as a flower of the dead in Mexico.

Very nice picture @joanstewart

I already want my garden to be populated with these flowers

Lovely flowers.

beautiful flower!upvote for u from kryptonia @ziggypepper

Nice and orange

You can never go wrong when planting Marigolds in your flower beds. My son planted a few Marigolds seeds a couple of weeks ago and they have just started to sprout, let's hope they make it through his over-watering!

My first lot planted also died off, not the right area in the garden alas, hope the little one has loads of fun tending to his flower bed.

I didnt know this flower has lots of benefits and uses aside from being pretty. I am looking now for seeds to plant this kind of flower. Upvoted and commented by rubelynmacion

Flowers often have more uses than one, just have to be careful which ones, much like fungi some are edible and others deadly poisonous @rubelynmacion

So pretty! These were my mom's favorite flower :) I'm coming to you from @kryptonia with the same user name.

Really thrive in poor, dry soil and torrid conditions most times, giving a beautiful bloom @fitinfun

Wow! This is so pretty! I love the wavy petals! And thank you for sharing the use of marigold. 😊 I've learned something! 😊

The flowers are amazing and last quite well when snipped for a vase in the house @gingbabida

lovely flowers upvoted from kryptonia @everdope

They are beautiful. I don't know why but they don't like me much. My plants never want to grow. I shall try again, as my hubby loves them so much!

My soil is full of clay, making them not always the happiest in the garden @hope777

Maybe that was my problem too on the spot where I tried to plant them previously. Thank you for replying!

Beautiful flowers.
