This year I am planting at least to marigolds in each square. This should help provide beneficial insects and draw bees/butterflys for pollination. -- XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX John Huff E-mail: jhu554@airmail.net Personal Web Page: http://web2.airmail.net/jhu554 Tom & Susan Schmidtke 3S Emu Ranch HC3, Box 1017; Bandara, TX 78003 210-796-7145
