Jackie French’s Guide to Companion Planting

Companion planting works – but only when you know why.

This book is the result of 40 years of studying gardens, orchards and the bush; of Jackie French experimenting and testing what lore works and what doesn’t.

The result is a plan for gardens

• that are unconventional and wild, untidy even, but always beautiful
• without a need for pesticides and herbicides
• where plants are companions for each other and for the other species of the earth

Completely revised and updated this edition is:

• More than double the extent of the 1st edition
• Full colour, now with some 100 photographs
• Separate chapters on companion planting for Fruit, Vegetables, Flowers, the Lawn, and Soil Fertility
• In its 7th printing, with more than 25 000 copies in print, this inspirational guide is set to be most gardeners’ companion for life.
