Companion Planting for Tomatoes

Monday, February 8th, 2010

I’ve always found the idea of companion planting fascinating. I wouldn’t swear it always works, but I suspect there’s a lot more substance to it than its detractors will admit. Gardeners have been fine tuning it for years and there’s no substitute for experience. Today I’m combining two of my gardening loves: growing tomatoes and companion planting. I culled through a few dozen articles and books and my own experience and pulled together my list of companion plants for tomatoes. Since you’re going to grow some of these plants anyway, why not experiment with growing them together? There’s still plenty of time to start some seeds.
