Message from Devon Anderson
Greer, South Carolina
I fell in love with Marigolds when I first started gardening a couple of years ago, and they're still my favorite to this day 🏵
This year has been so fun watching them multiply all over the garden 💚
It all started with 1 small marigold plant in all of the corners of my raised beds. They quickly grew and spread (alongside Thai basil ~ quite a beautiful combo, in my opinion 🙂)
Every time I picked off the dead flowers, I'd take the "fresh" seeds and just sprinkle them in other spots in the bed, in with the melons, in pots, in the herb cart, and in the ground. Some germinated, some didn't, but the ones that sprouted are now a happy pop of color all around 🧡❤️💛
I will forever be in awe of Marigolds 🏵
Note from the Roots on the Rise team: Thank you for the message and the beautiful photos! We love that Marigolds are still holding such a special place in your heart. We really appreciate your Marigold Messages, Devon!
