I've not seen anything anywhere that says they ward off bunnies and they don't smell like <i>Tagetes</i> spp., so I'm going to guess they don't.<br /><br /><b>RobinL ~ </b>I completely understand that, Robin!<br /><br /><b>Lona ~ </b>You'd better do it this year, Lona! Yep, winter has arrived, for sure! I'll bet it's just gorgeous down there where you are. I've always wanted to go to Hocking Hills in winter.<br /><br /><b>Leslie ~ </b>That's a good question! From what I've read, the petals are what's used for its herbal and medicinal properties. Maybe the birds DO eat them and I just haven't caught them doing it. But I don't think so, because when I save the seed, the seedheads are always nice and full with no missing seeds. I'll bet there's a reason though. Maybe they just don't taste good!Kylee Baumlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288354709094515651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-59326895900340212642015-01-12T11:39:41.600-05:002015-01-12T11:39:41.600-05:00I bought a couple of 6-packs of calendula probably...I bought a couple of 6-packs of calendula probably 10 years ago for my Wyoming garden. They were a wonderful addition of color. Plus they have reseeded every summer since that initial planting. There are fewer and fewer plants but they reliably self seed. This summer (July?) I'll buy some more and start the cycle again. Is the oil contained in the seed? Maybe that's why the birds don't eat them.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09692126747548571090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-11633938928846875282015-01-12T11:13:44.660-05:002015-01-12T11:13:44.660-05:00Every year I wonder if I should try growing some f...Every year I wonder if I should try growing some from seed.Then I never do for some reason.

We sell them at our master gardener's plant sale every year and I always admire them but I've never grown them. I'm mostly interested in them for their medicinal properties. Do you know if, like other modern marigolds, they ward off bunnies?<br />Erin @ The Impatient Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14166660410287418037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-69438725727037063382015-01-11T16:26:10.747-05:002015-01-11T16:26:10.747-05:00Lisa ~ I know, right?
