If you’re one of those people who sometimes forget to water their plants, there’s no need to let your dream of having a wonderful flower garden go, because Marigolds are one of the best low-maintenance plants you could get.

Marigolds love being in the sun, and they need just a bit of deadheading so they can beautifully bloom into fall. If you’re not convinced why you should consider planting Marigolds in your garden, wait until you read this: they’ll help you get rid of those annoying pests that mess with your veggies.

That’s right, Marigolds are pest-free shrubs, and thanks to their pungent scent that’s noticeable in some varieties, they’re great for keeping pests and insects away from your garden plants. They’re also amazing as companions for potatoes, tomatoes, chili peppers, and eggplant.
