Thank you so much! I think it definitely helps. The Mister is more skeptical. lol

Marigolds are the best flowers! My favorite Marigolds are Cracker Jacks because they look like fluffy pom poms. 😅🌸

Hi, Jenn! I’m allergic to Marigolds, but I sure plant a lot of them! lol They really are the best. Cracker Jacks are lovely. Thank you so much.

What a cheerful and delightful post! 🌼🌿😊

Your “mosquito bowl” made me smile! What a clever and practical combination of marigolds and citronella—beautiful to look at while naturally helping to keep those pesky mosquitoes away. Sometimes the best gardens are the ones that blend beauty with purpose.

Thank you so much, Vijay. That means a lot.

Does it really work? That seems pretty safe compared to spraying the yard.

Kymber July 21, 2026 - 6:00 pm

I haven’t noticed as many mosquitoes but The Mister is more skeptical saying he saw a mosquito hanging out in there. LOL We also have pots of citronella and marigolds all around the porch and garden.

Beautiful and anything that will keep the mosquitoes away is a good thing.

I linked this post to Happy Tuesday.

Have a fabulous day, Kymber. Love and hugs to you and scritches to the kitties. ♥

Kymber July 21, 2026 - 12:21 pm

I agree with you on that, for sure! 😊

Thank you so much. I was going to combine the hops together but didn’t want to lose doing my Hey Everybuddy post. lol I think I’ll combine next week and see how that goes.

Happy Tuesday, Sandee! Love and hugs! Lots of scritches to your kitties! 🩷🌺
