My friend, Tricia, is quite the gardner and we often share clippings and ideas. This year she gave me some seeds from her Monet Marigold stock. I threw a handful next to my tomatoes to encourage bees and,therefore, pollination. I am in Florida so the temperature is still very warm and today I am
checking on my beautiful yellow flowers. The flowers are a great burst of color and when cut make
a delicate and beautiful arrangement for a small vase. When the flowers brown
and dry up, they house the seeds and you can save them and have a new crop next
spring! Thanks Tricia!
