Companian planting – for runner beans
by Sarah - May 22nd, 2011.Filed under: Jersey Plants.
There are lots of possibilities for companian planting that can be beneficial for crops in your garden.
This fantastic idea encourages bees to come to your beans and the better pollination you get the better crop of beans you get.
Plant sweet peas with your runner beans – they’ll race up the same canes and give you flowers – and provide an added attraction for bees!
