Basil & Marigold
Marigolds provide pest control by deterring aphids, nematodes, and whiteflies. Meanwhile, basil attracts natural predators like ladybugs that help manage aphid populations, as well as pollinators. Planting basil near other herbs and vegetables can also enhance their flavours.
Rosemary & Alyssum
Alyssum boosts pollination for nearby plants, enhancing fruit and vegetable yields. Rosemary, in addition to repelling pests, can enhance flavour of nearby crops. Together they can help improve soil structure and reduce weed growth.
Lavender & Parsley
Planting lavender near parsley creates a natural pest barrier- protecting your crops from pests such as flea beetles, aphids and whiteflies. In addition, lavender attracts pollinators, improves soil drainage and structure around parsley, and brings a splash of colour to your garden.
Thyme & Rose
Thyme naturally protects roses from pests such as aphids, whiteflies, and spider mites. The aromatic flowers also help to entice pollinators , which help improve rose blooms and overall plant health.
