Karen's Reviews > Carrots Love Tomatoes: Secrets of Companion Planting for Successful Gardening

This handy reference gets pulled out and reviewed nearly every time I plant another batch of veggies in my gardens. For those of us who have never seen where a carrot would prefer to grow in the wilds, this book allows us to plant companion plants that help each other out.
I really don't like the idea of adding any sort of sprays or fertilizers to my gardens, especially the vegetable and herb beds. So, compost and companion planting are my personal solutions for most "problems" encountered in the suburban garden plot.
You can read this like a bed-time story (cover to cover), or just flip through,stopping at the illustrations. But the Index is the real place to start. Choose your desired herbs or veggies, then go to the Index to find out more about their preferred buddies. Then plan your garden.
