Beneficial plants for the garden

A friend of mine borriwed this book often, so I bought them a copy for their birthday. It showed me many ways to reduce pests in my garden, using companion planting, and without using pesticides. I love the mix of pretty flowers and herbs among my vegetable plants. It also offered great ideas for plant spacing within the garden.

Great Garden Companions : A Companion-Planting System for a

Which plants enhance other plants, attract good bugs, repel bad bugs. Vegetables that are compatible and incompatible. Each section is comprehensive, easy to follow. Great tips, especially the home-made Tomato cages. The paperback version is very nice, lots of pictures and illustrations and large, I also have the hardback. There is information about diseases, ways of planting (container, etc.)This should be in every gardner's library, from beginner to professional.

Wonderful!

This is what gardening is all about! This text approaches gardening in a sustainable, "natural-chaos", good for you and the earth manner. The illustrations are clear, the diagrams simple, new/unfamiliar terms well explained. Very clear, concise, imaginative, and inspiring. The author deserves a BIG thank-you for writing this book. It takes the guess work and mystery out of organic gardening and companion plants. Her methods are simple and effective.

a new approach to organic gardening

This book was great. It's an easy to understand book with good pictures and a really useful chart of beneficial plants. It gave me a new perspective on the often complicated world of companion planting. This book isn't about folklore, it's about what's worked for one master gardener over many years. It's broken down into manageable chunks. I love the idea of plant families living in plant neighborhoods, surrounded by plants that help growth and beneficial insects and confuse or lure away the bad ones.
