I have a backyard vineyard of about 100 vines.
Does anyone know of any plants that are natural
insect repellants that I could plant between
the
vines. I do not need a product I can eat but
something that is pretty would be an added
bonus.


Marigolds are old stand-bys for that kind of
thing, the smellier, the better.

There seems to be some dissagreement on this:
