Marigold, African Giant - Tagetes erecta
While not often thought of as medicinal, Marigolds are rich in lutein, a compound that improves vision. Adding marigold petals to your salad gives it an eye boosting pop of beauty. And in the garden, marigolds are amazing at deterring the pesky nematodes and whiteflys. You can even add marigolds to your chicken’s diet to enhance the color and nutritional value of the eggs! This versatile plant also makes an excellent cut flower with a long vase life. These self seeding annuals enjoy full sun and should be spaced 12 inches a part. Can grow to 4 feet tall.
