What is the story Marigolds about?

Pretty and smell bad but bugs away.

What is the story Marigolds about?
Well, once upon a time there were 3 marigolds, Papa marigold, mama marigold, and itty bitty baby marigold. One magical spring day, they went for a stroll through their magical veggie garden, and a magical unicorn ate them. The end.





Or, if you prefer the real story, they are good to plant around and through a garden, be it veggie or flower, because there are some insects that do NOT like their scent and will shy away from them. My mother has always planted them around the perimeter of her veggie garden, and even though she don't use any pesticides, has fairly good luck with keeping the insects at bay. There are different varieties of marigolds, some with different size flowers on them, and she uses the ones that have large flowers. However, she really does have a problem with deer ignoring them and eating the leaves of her veggies! :)
