Thank you for a very informative video! There's no need for applying chemicals to remove any plant though - you simply put down cardboard, stone slate on top of it, and large planters on top of that. When deprived of light and possibility for growing for a certain period of time, they disappear. You can put nitrogen infused wood shavings (from your hamster/bunny/cat's tray) under the cardboard to burn off any shoots, and feed the ground while waiting for the nuissance plant to disappear.
Important topic and great presentation, but honestly many of the companion-planting recommendations don't align well with the known bloom periods of fruit trees. For instance, most pears bloom for a short time in early spring, while the suggested flowering plants (bee balm, echinacea, bloom in summer. You can still love the color and diversity they bring, but don't expect any improvements in pollination.
so helpful! thank you! ...and for your 'grace' 😊
