The many benefits of strategically growing vegetables with other plants to enhance their growth, health and flavour.

As beautiful as it is productive, companion planting is a cultivation method that not only reduces the number of pests, but also increases pollination, encourages healthy root systems and even makes edible crops more nutritious. For example, strawberries, marigolds and garlic may seem like an unusual trio, but marigolds release chemicals that reduce the reproduction of aphids, helping to protect all three crops against infestation.

In Companion Planting, renowned horticulturalist Ortrud Grieb outlines 18 sample bed combinations for popular vegetables and fruits, each complete with planting lists and month-by-month tasks. lllustrated with 80 eye-catching photographs, 40 diagrams and lots of tables and tips, Ortrud will help you to establish a strong basis for healthy growth and ecological protection

Whether you're growing in a garden, raised bed or container, this practical guide is essential for anyone who wants an attractive, healthy and easy-to-maintain kitchen garden.

Ortrud Grieb is a trained gardener and horticultural engineer who moved to the northern Black Forest after a successful career running her own organic farm. Ortrud has taught many horticulture workshops and is the author of multiple gardening books. She is also a very talented photographer and illustrator.
