You have changed my life! I have all hillside in my backyard due to living in the mountains. My side yard is flat, so I bought several galvanized raised beds. Planting as you’ve instructed helped me add so much more to my garden beds! Thank you!!! 🪴👩🌾🏡
Great list! I've seen (and made) quite a few rose mistakes in my time. They aren't my favorite plant, I call them high maintenance drama queens with a drug addiction. But they are gorgeous when they bloom and a wonderful addition to most gardens!
I love this! I want to plan ahead for the next seasons to create a beautiful garden like these. I have all my veggies in grow bags & large storage bins right now. It’s so ugly. Your gardens are a beautiful work of art you can eat! I’m going to aspire to this!
Newbee here. I actually think I’d rather do this than boring row by row gardening and having interesting planters would be fun. Thank you but, I read that the composition of soils may need to change with some plants. In this true?
So for containers, just think of this on a smaller scale. Maybe you don't have large plants, but you can definitely surround medium-size plants like Swiss chard with flowers and herbs. That would be a beautiful container!
I tried this style of planting last year in my grow bags and it worked wonderfully. Just adjust depending on size of your grow bags :) I bordered all bags with flowers/herbs.
Hello from Puerto Rico. New to your channel. I love your way of gardening. Would love to see a mini version for balcony, small space or apartment gardening.
I would offer there may be yet another category: Critters and Pests. Brassicas etc need netting in my area so those maybe should be together. We have wild squirrels and turkey and quail so tomato, pumpkin, etc need protection but also need to be available for pollinators. So, maybe clumping flowing/non-flowering plants together is not truly 'companion planting'?
I think your garden planner looks great but it is too difficult to use for someone in Australia. It took me a few tries to remember that in the US you put the date backwards! Month then day...even once I got that right for my first and last frost date it didn't work... Maybe it is only for the Northern Hemisphere which makes sense I guess.
Which herbs or flowers help with squash-yellow crookneck and zucchini? Mine are huge, but I’m trying to deter bugs!! I’m in Zone 9b in the Houston area.
Tomatoes are definitely large, even vining types that are trained up a trellis. They're great to mix with other warm season plants of all sizes (think basil, peppers, bush beans, etc.)
@@Gardenary even though I’ve already got my garden planned out for the year, I can now not stop thinking about how to re-jig it so I can grow the way you’ve described it. I have been planting a perimeter of flowers- mainly French marigolds & throw in chamomile, borage & sunflowers to invite pollinators & predatory insects- not to mention, for plain old beauty but the rest is just so darn difficult to figure out. I planted 3 - 4 ft rows of garlic last fall and have put in some bulbing onions which will limit my re-jig, along with the fact that I planted out my seed started spring crops super early to test out the limits of growing under cover, so now I have some limitations but it’s not gonna stop me trying! 🙃thanks again for the inspiration & information! 💐

a beautiful vegetable garden, I also want to do a vegetable garden like you ...
Perfecttt.. makes so much sense for beginners ❤
Glad it makes sense!
This video just helped answer SO many questions I’ve been searching for help on. THANK YOU!!
Brb gonna go fix a few of my plantings lol
Awesome video! I’m planting today. Very helpful!

A sandy loam soil is great for all these plants I mentioned. Amend with compost each season, and your plants will be happy
Plants Luke rosemary don't like fertiliser and water
Great video! What about growing in containers? All my plants are in grow bags or containers. Can you please do a video for containers

I do a lot of videos on herb and salad container gardens!
Shalom beautiful garden ❤
BEAUTIFUL Garden. I So Love It! Thank You :)
Thanks for sharing answered so many of my concerns 😊
That is a great strategy. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
How do you garden without a fence? Can you make a video on explaining that?? I love the challenge you are currently running!!!!
Check out my video on how to keep pests out of the garden! I talk about not having a fence
I signed up to the garden academy!!!
I’d like to know how do you grow brassicas in the open? I always get worms that demolish my cabbage!!
I'd grow them under covers if cabbage worms are a huge issue
I ❤ this. Thank you😊
This was so helpful!!!
I'm glad!
i just started looking at your channel. Very interested in how you control pests/bug in your garden?
Search our channel for pests. We've got several videos!

We use the herb and flower border as pest control
I feel she share info to direct u towards her books. I feel like it’s not really honest info. 😢

Respectfully, have you been working out more lately, Nicole? Your arms look amazing! :)
It's lifting all those soil bags! Thanks!

Things like marigolds, sage, and thyme can help. Check the leaves every day for little eggs so you can try to prevent squash vine borer
Spray them with a natural soap mixture to kill any bugs!
What size do you consider tomatoes and plant with what?
Tomatoes are definitely large, even vining types that are trained up a trellis. They're great to mix with other warm season plants of all sizes (think basil, peppers, bush beans, etc.)
That’s a great way to think about planting. Thank you for sharing this!
Glad it's useful!

It is useless from simplicity and economic perspective
Makes so much sense! 🌱🌼🌱🌸🥬
Great video! I really love your top! Do you mind sharing where it is from? So cute!!
Thanks! I think this was Anthro
