Vegetables Love Flowers by Lisa Mason Ziegler
Companion Planting for Beauly and Bounty
March 2018
Nonfiction, gardening
Quarto Publishing
I received this digital ARC from Publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an unbiased review.
This is an organized and beautifully illustrated book sharing the authors experience with growing plants and flowers together. Some of the benefits of companion planting included less work to allow the natural growing process to take over. The author does caution that this solution to pests and gardening problems will not resolve issues overnight.
She explains how companion planting of flowers and vegetables can assist with many of difficulties gardeners have when attempting to grow organically. The use of beneficial insects which are attracted to specific flowers become a preventative force to the insects which thrive on garden vegetables. It’s the forethought and planning which helps preventative maintenance for a healthy garden.
