Summary:
"Centuries ago before chemical fertilizers and engineered inputs, the most productive vegetable gardens shared one common attribute: the
vegetables
were paired up. Not with other
vegetables
, but with beds of beautiful
flowers
. Even then, gardeners knew that
vegetables
love
flowers
. Or to be more precise,
vegetables
love
pollinators, and pollinators
love
flowers
. Drawn by colorful, fragrant blossoms, they visit in swarms, performing their good work. And the
vegetables
thrive.
Companion
planting
with
vegetables
and
flowers
is not as simple as it sounds. But if you follow the timetables, tips, and
planting
schedules outlined in
Vegetables
Love
Flowers
, author Lisa Mason Ziegler will show you how to keep the
flowers
blooming and the pollinators buzzing. Your
vegetables
will produce more fruit than ever and, as an added bonus, you will enjoy lovely cut
flowers
all season long. Who doesn't
love
a happy ending?"--Cover.
