Ground Elder

[MrsJ1]

My husband heard that if you plant a certain type of marigold, it gets rid of ground elder (not sure if it picks it or digs it up!!!) Unfortunately, he couldnt remember the type of marigold. Has anyone heard about this or been successful with it?

Was he told this on April 1st?

lol Hawkwalk but it appears to be true....
it's the mexican marigold here

sorry Mrs J, but I don't know if it really works...let us know!

[MrsJ1]

Wow! thanks Robinia! I thought he was having me on. Will try it out and let you know,
