i've heard that it is a good idea to plant marigolds around a garden but i forgot why
Why plant marigolds around a garden?
Because animals dont like the smell and will stay away from your garden.
Reply:they're pretty aren't they?
Reply:Not only are these flowers easy to grow and beautiful with all the different colors, they put off a smell that some animals and bugs do not like! Great, a flower that mulititasks!
Reply:Marigolds smell bad so they keep rabbits and other pests from eating your vegetables.
Reply:because they look nice
Reply:They repel snakes!! The odor causes the snakes to change direction. Good luck---
Reply:If your planting fruits and vegetables it helps keep the rabbits and deer away. Another good way to keep them away is get cut hair from the barber shop and put it around the edge.
Reply:Apparently, they repel harmful insects and attract useful ones.
See my source for more info.
Hope this helps!

I grew mint indoors last year and it loved it and then i put it ouside and it just took over...
I would try a combo of mint,sage,basil and parsley, they seem to grow well together.
Lavender seems to grow well with,dill,thyme and rosemary. At least thats what has been the norm in my and my mothers gardens. Hope that kinda helps!
Reply:All can be started inside, but you want to eventually move them outside where they will get full sun. All herbs grow best in full sun, not a sunny window. You could keep them in a Three-Season room for a bit, but again, for better plant health and better growth and longevity, you will need to move them outside, even if they are in containers.
Reply:check on-line sources to see the amount of sunlight each needs. Some can thrive under florescent light. Some don't hold up well to direct sunlight, such as german chamomile. I grew some and it didn't fair well in the Arkansas heat of late spring/ early summer.

Do you think Rosemary or Marigold is a better name fo a witch in my story???
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
Do you think Rosemary or Marigold is a better name fo a witch in my story???
Good witch? Then Willow Wand.
Bad witch? Belladonna.
Reply:marigold (calendula) words have healing power; sacrifice out of love if necessary rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis) protection and healing ; be positive.............those are the keynotes as provided by ted andrews nature speak, so is your character positive or a martyr? i actually like calendula as a name. most people wouldn't even know what it meant, but the "informed " would get a kick out of it. good luck with the story, and when/where can we read it?
Reply:rosemary
Reply:I like Rosemary, too. Marigold sounds too frivolous.
Reply:Very creative names...but they both seem a little too happy if you're naming an evil witch. I'd go with something a little more sinister/mysterious for a bad witch. Millicent or Grethel or something along those lines.
Otherwise, I like Rosemary better than Marigold, but, then I suppose it depends a bit on the character and type of story you're putting together, too.
Reply:Rosemary is a good name for a bad witch. Marigold is good for a good witch. I think Rosemary sounds good for a bad witch is because of the movie Rosemary's baby. But I was watching the Wicker man over the weekend and all of the women on summers isle were named after some kind of plant name, which I've noticed you have done with Rosemary/Marigold. They were named after flowers, trees, plants all kinds of different plant names. It was pretty cool. Hope you have fun with your search! Maybe research plant life and find something that is kind of a sinister plant. Maybe her first name could be poison and her middle name ivy? Just a thought....Have fun!
Reply:Either name is good for either type of which, depending on how you play it. Consider the character and go with the one that comes up more frequently. You may also want to fight the stereotypes and make either of these evil character names. Notice how many people associated these names with "good witch" characteristics? A good book provides an element of surprise.
Reply:How about "Lucifer" for a bad witch? the other names r good for good witch
Reply:I would let the characters speak to me and tell me what they think they should be called (if they do speak to you) otherwise go to babynames.com and they can give you the meanings behind the names you chose and then you can see if they fit the personalities of your characters you are writing about.

Reply:I'm assumming she is a good witch. I like Marigold. You don't hear that name often.
Reply:I'm liking Marigold better if its a good witch. Rosemary doesn't do anything for me either way.

Reply:Rosemary for a bad witch...and Marigold for a good witch...Marigolds are much more dainty kind of like the good witch's
Reply:I think the opposite of the others.. Rosemary sounds sweet and good to me and Marigold could be a little sinister and mysterious.
Reply:Lucy or Lucinda for a good witch. (It means "light.") Hazel, Beulah or Wilhelmina for bad witches. Of the two you have, I like Rosemary. Marigold sounds too sweet.
Reply:They both would be alright for a good witch but not for an evil witch.
Reply:They both sound like nice witch names. (Good witches) If you're going for a mean or bad witch, I would use something like Hazel.
Reply:FOR SOME REASON I LIKE THE NAME " REGINA "FOR A WITCHS NAME JUST A SUGGESTION.
Reply:Rosemary

Did Kurt Cobain ever sing the song Marigold?
There is a rare Nirvana b-side called Marigold. It was written and sung by Dave Grohl. Apparently a version exists with Kurt Cobain singing it. Anyone know about it? I have looked and looked but can't find it and you will make me really happy if you can find it.
