I have used this variety for pest control in my tomatoes over the last 7 years and in all that time I have had 3 tomato horn worms and no aphids. It also holds pest deterrent properties that work well for potatoes, eggplant, peppers and lettuce. Plant 1 flower for every 2 vegetable plants for best coverage, This plant is also rather pretty with semi-doubled red, orange and golden multi-coloured flowers. Blooms all season long. Annual
