Gardening Advice

Companion gardening is essential gardening advice in attracting good insects that help manage the bad insects that try to destroy your bountiful, healthy crop.


Planting the correct herb next to your vegetables not only supports the growth of larger vegetables, but also creates a more flavorful vegetable. Some smelly herbs distract or confuse those bad bugs and they’re less likely to find your garden vegetables.

Short Roots / Small Pots

Short herb roots are plants that have a grown depth of 3 to 8 inches approximately. They provide some weed control when planted near other crops such as tomatoes for vegetables or basil for herbs.
