You might even have a few ideas in mind for what you’d like to plant.
Here are some plants you shouldnt grow next to each other.
Drought-Tolerant Plants and Moisture-Loving Plants
Looking to grow a variety of plants in your garden?
It could end up giving your drought-tolerant plants root rot.
So take a stab at station these two types of plants as far away from each other as possible.
This is because, while these flowers are gorgeous, they are known for chronic diseases.
If one gets sickall of them will get sick and die.
Its best to plant gardenias on their own.
Garlic isbest planted in an area aloneor only with other sulfur-tolerant plants.
Aesthetic goals and ecological context are both critical to selecting plants that share a space.
She adds another problem is that these flowers grow differently in other ways.
Quite simply, they should complement each other.
While its fine to keep these veggies on the same plate, they probably shouldnt share the same soil.
These are all competitors for the same nutrients!
Mint and Everything Else
Fresh mint elevates everything from water to cocktails and even certain recipes.
So you might be very excited to grow it.
However, according to Abbass, mint is best suited for container planting.
Monarda and Cucumbers
Cucumbers are a wonderful addition to any garden.
However, this delicious veggie should not be planted near Monarda.
