Yellow Marigolds

Oddly enough, the marigolds are doing better now than ever before. Pinching back dead flowers when they appear has kept this plant looking great. Marigolds are really easy to take care of and bugs seem to avoid them like I avoid the five-oh.

Did you know? The petals of the Pot Marigold (Calendula officinalis) are known to cure skin problems from burns to acne. Yeah, even still, I think I'll stick with with my tub of Proactiv. I'm really quite happy with it. Seriously, ask anyone in homeroom. They'll tell you.
