Re: Repellant plants -- some websites

Here's a site that lists some plants and the pests they repel:

This one is about Tansy:

I had never heard of tansy before. Apparently, it's either a wonderful herb
or a "noxious weed", depending on your point of view and your website.
Several sites mentioned that it can take over a garden and may have a
toxicity to cattle (with resulting illegality in several states) -- so you
may want to be careful with this plant.

I am interested in repellant plants. It seems much cheaper and safer than
coating everything with poison every few days. I'd like to see this thread
thoroughly explored and debated.
