Is Anyone growing Marigold This year?

[pomegranate]

I just bought some african marigold plants. They look grat:GreenThumbs:

i am a very big fan of them, i usually plant it in my front garden. people walk by my house say they look great, last year they gave me good double flower, hopefully they give me good results this year too!!

Are any of you friends growing marigold too?:sunny:

No marigolds here I'm afraid, but they do look rather striking! Got any pictures, P?

I think I'll buy some and plant with my tomatoes, I have a suspicion that they are good for tomatoes although I can't remember why I think that now. And I just love the look of them:)
