6 TAGETES – 6.32 - MARIAGOLDS ARE EDIBLE PLANTS

Marigolds Are Edible Plants
You might not realise this, but marigolds are also one of plenty of edible flowers that you could grow amongst your fruits and vegetables. Marigolds are not just a good companion plant – they are an edible crop in their own right.
 
The petals can be added to a range of salads, as in this excellent example:
Egg and Tomato Salad With Marigold and Chive Flowers @ lavenderandborage.com.
 
The petals of French marigolds can also be added as decoration to cupcakes or other baked goods and used decoratively in a whole range.
 
Many gardeners do not think to plant flowers in their vegetable garden. But creating polycultures of fruits, vegetables, flowers and herbs can help you to garden organically.
Placing flowers in your vegetable garden will help increase the diversity of plants and wildlife, increase resilience, protect the soil and keep your garden growing strong.
But why choose to grow French marigolds in particular? Why exactly are French marigolds such a great flower to choose? (Their prettiness doesn’t even come into it!)

6 TAGETES  – 6.32 - MARIAGOLDS NI MIMEA YA KULIWA
 
Marigolds ni mimea inayoliwa
Huenda usitambue hili, lakini marigolds pia ni mojawapo ya maua mengi ya chakula ambayo unaweza kukua kati ya matunda na mboga zako. Marigolds sio tu mmea mwenzi mzuri - ni mazao ya chakula peke yao.
 
Petals zinaweza kuongezwa kwa anuwai ya saladi, kama katika mfano huu bora:
Saladi ya Yai na Nyanya Pamoja na Maua ya Marigold na Chive @ lavenderandborage.com.
 
Petali za marigold za Ufaransa pia zinaweza kuongezwa kama mapambo kwa keki au bidhaa zingine zilizooka na kutumika kwa mapambo katika anuwai nzima.
 
Wapanda bustani wengi hawafikirii kupanda maua kwenye bustani yao ya mboga. Lakini kuunda polycultures ya matunda, mboga mboga, maua na mimea inaweza kukusaidia bustani organically.
Kuweka maua katika bustani yako ya mboga kutasaidia kuongeza utofauti wa mimea na wanyamapori, kuongeza ustahimilivu, kulinda udongo na kuweka bustani yako kukua imara.
Lakini kwa nini kuchagua kukua marigolds Kifaransa hasa? Kwa nini marigolds ya Kifaransa ni maua mazuri ya kuchagua? (Urembo wao hauingii ndani yake!)
Hapa kuna sababu zingine 15 za kukuza marigolds kwenye bustani yako ya mboga:
Njia zingine nyingi jikoni yako.
