you know....Ive never seent his english pot marigold before! Ive only ever grown the african ones....can anyone (Thumps Judy) tell me why they are not great for buns?:wave:
I'm sorry I can't
I think I read it on the old RU site of bunny safe/unsafe cultivated plants. I'm not too good at cultivated plants.
I also found out that Calendula only applies to the English (pot) marigold. They're so easy to grow & self seed plentifully.
I definately know that English marigolds are sold commercially in good bunny treats.
African marigolds are one of several different species of Tagetes & aren't sold as bunny treats.
There are marked differences between USA & UK in nomenclature sometimes.
We need Rabbit Nutrition or Clutterydrawer or Pretty Lupin or Bavarian bunny to help here.
A huge thankyou for your question though cos I found out that English Marigold helps gut spasm in rabbits & I'm desperate for something to help Thumper at present.
Nessar you are right that is a willow - probably a weeping willow which has yellowish/orangey twigs which hang down.
Yes an airing cupboard is an ideal place to dry things in.
