It wasn't until much later that I found out that pot marigold is calendula (Calendula officinalis). The stinky stuff that the bees (and I) avoid is in the genus Tagetes, so they're completely unrelated. Definitely plant some calendula! It's wonderful!Julie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09965401314478095790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1347024209749983628.post-32278146406130473962015-12-13T16:27:19.623-05:002015-12-13T16:27:19.623-05:00Something new for my garden, I think.
