funnily enough, not planned. My veg patch is in my back garden (see my blog) and I like it to look pretty as well as growing veg, so I had some packs of marigolds and things and have planted round the edges Very Happy

Recently I have been looking at companion planting, just scratching the surface at the moment, & Marigolds look to be one of the best things to plant in companionship with most vegetables  discouraging lots of the bad creepy crawlies but encouraging the good & also if its mexican marigolds it is claimed that they can inhibit some weeds...
