Title: Companion planting guide
Post by: zaz283 on April 12, 2009, 09:06:01

Trying to be organic, I've been trawling the web sites for info on companion planting. Some good ones, though often they don't explain why some plants are beneficial. In addition I like to have guides like this pinned up in my shed to refer to.

So I've done myself a guide... if you're interested you can download a copy. The link is under Welcome! on the top right hand  of my web site below. When the link opens click the item above 'Add a description' to download.

Hope it helps... & if you think there's anything missing please let me know!

Thanks, John

thanks for that I'm into companion gardening myself if for no other reason because the in the wild the plants don't grow separate from each other and i like a more informal look to my planting. i learnt something new from you guide IE thyme plants beneficial to cabbages i think i will under sow my brassics with thyme seeds this year, i nothing else it should look pretty :).
