(No real rain since begining of July here! ) My approach to companion planting really never "grew" past the line of marigolds I put around the garden every year...sorry 'bout the pun, BTW. PS You'll have to copy/paste the link to a new browser page, but it should work. If not, check for spaces inserted within the address. Quote \| Reply \| Report

I might get the book that was mentioned - "Carrots love Tomatoes" - I've thought about getting that one in the past! Quote \| Reply \| Report
