Pro tip: I read an old gardening book that said to plant marigolds with your tomatoes
The book was from the 1970s and said to put one marigold for every three tomato plants. I tried it last spring and my tomatoes had way fewer bugs than usual. It also just looked so pretty, like a little flower border around the vegetable patch. The book called it a 'companion planting' trick that people used to do all the time. It cost me about $4 for a packet of seeds. Has anyone else tried mixing flowers into their veggie garden? I'm curious what other good plant pairs are out there.
