Growing Garden Companions

Promoting Plant Partnerships
Tomatoes and marigolds . . . corn, beans, and squash. Through the ages, gardeners have believed that
certain plants prefer particular partners. Don't jump to conclusions; it's not that plants actually like to
pal around (a serious misconception)! Rather, some plants appear to do better when grown near
others.

Arranging crops so they complement each other in some way is known as companion planting. The
Three Sisters growing system, long used by many Native American cultures, is one of the most
familiar examples. The 'sisters' -- corn, beans, and squash -- are planted together in such a way that
they aid each others' success in different ways. Tall corn stalks provide support for pole beans to
climb. Beans, through their symbiotic association with a type of root bacteria, fix nitrogen from the
air into a form that plants (especially nitrogen-hungry corn) can use. And large, ground-hugging,
prickly squash leaves shade out weeds and may deter critters.

Scientific research supports some of the claims about which plants make good bedfellows, but many
are based on historical observation and tradition. So digging into the science and lore of companion
planting can enable your explorers to conduct investigations that break new ground! If you have
limited gardening space, planting companions with different growth rates or requirements can lead to
a more fruitful harvest. Some plants provide support or shade that help others thrive. Plants that need
lots of nutrients are often paired with those that "feed" lightly. Perhaps the most common reason for
companion planting is to prevent pest problems. Specific crops (typically flowers and herbs) are
believed to repel certain pests, lure them elsewhere, or confuse them. Others entice beneficial insects,
birds, and spiders that have a penchant for dining on problem visitors.

Plants aren't the only ones that benefit from this gardening strategy. A schoolyard landscape
featuring a diverse blend of vegetables, flowers, and herbs of varied colors, textures, and aromas can
be a work of beauty that engages all who visit. Integrating food plants with ornamental ones is often
termed edible landscaping.

Whichever routes you take, the more you mix and mingle plants, the more diverse and resilient a
garden system you create. Because such a system better mirrors natural ones, a diverse garden can be
an exciting living laboratory for studies across the curriculum.

Growing Garden Companions
Practicing companion planting can be as simple as tucking a few dill plants into your broccoli bed to
entice beneficial insects or transplanting colorful lettuce into a flower border. Here we share some
advice and traditions related to three general approaches to companion planting. We encourage you
and your students to test some of these ideas and develop your own strategies based on your
observations, hunches, and understanding of plant needs.

Finding Compatible Needs
Plants that have different requirements — for nutrients, sunlight, and space, for instance — often
make good garden buddies. Because they are unlikely to compete for resources, you can plant them
close together to save space. What's more, some combinations can actually help one or more of the
companions flourish. Consider the following factors:

Sunlight — Some plants are sun worshippers and others "relish" respite from the heat (or at least
tolerate shade). A clever gardener takes advantage of these differences. Tall crops, such as peas and
corn, for instance, can shade lettuce and spinach from the midday sun, extending the harvest season
of these cool-weather crops. Consider challenging your students to figure out how to provide shade
during a specific time of day (mid-afternoon, for instance.) They'll have to observe where the sun hits
the garden at different times so they can decide where to put shade-loving crops in relation to taller
ones. Here are some other plants that can tolerate partial shade: alyssum, arugula, beets, broccoli,
chard, carrots, cabbage, cukes, lemon balm, lettuce, mint, peas, parsley, parsnips, radish, and
spinach.

Nutrients and Water — Gardeners often try growing plants with different rooting depths or nutrient
needs as companions. All plants need water and nutrients from the soil to survive, but they don't all
have the same needs nor do they meet them in the same way. Corn, for instance, is a nitrogen hog,
but carrots require much less of that nutrient. Some plants, such as squash, have deep roots that can
pull nutrients and water from greater depths than can onions, lettuce, and other shallow-rooted crops.
(Your students may want to sacrifice some plants to investigate root types.) A family of crops called
legumes, which includes beans, peas, peanuts, lupine, and clover, can actually return more nitrogen
to the soil than they consume. This is because they have a symbiotic association with a type of root
bacteria that "fixes" nitrogen from the air into a form that plants can use.

Here are some ways you can take advantage of these differences: Plant nutrient-loving cabbage with
lighter-feeding onions or garlic, or grow dill (a light-feeder that attracts beneficial insects) in your
broccoli bed. Consider growing clover, a legume, between corn rows (once corn is at least six inches
high) and turning in the clover that fall or the following spring. You might set up a rotation in which
you grow corn in a bed one year and follow it with beans or peas the following year to help restore
nutrients used by the corn.

Since plants in the same family tend to have similar needs and can be affected by common diseases
and insect pests, it's wise to rotate crops so plant families are not grown in the same bed year after
year.

Nutrient Needs of Vegetable Plants
Heavy Feeders corn, cukes, eggplants, melons, peppers, sunflowers, tomatoes
Moderate basil, broccoli (and other cabbage family), lettuce, spinach, Swiss
Feeders chard
Light Feeders beets, carrots, cilantro, dill, garlic, onions, turnips
Soil improvers beans, lupines, peanuts, peas

Other Factors — Some plants make good partners because their life cycles, growth rates, or
temperature preferences differ. For instance, you can plant fast-growing, cool-weather crops like
lettuce, radishes, or cilantro early in the season alongside slower-growing, heat-loving tomatoes.
You'll be able to harvest your early crops quickly, making room for the tomatoes to take over.

Perplexing Pests

It has long been suspected that some plants repel pests, other plants either lure them away from
precious crops or merely confuse them, and many plants (particularly herbs and flowers) attract and
shelter "beneficial" insects and birds that prey on pests. Pests tend to flourish in a simple
environment (with few plant types). The more diversity and variety of plants in your garden the
greater will be the number of beneficial organisms that keep a check on the populations of pests. If
you want to keep the good guys coming, you'll need to grow a variety of plants with different bloom
times.

Some of the following advice on pest-protection partners is based on tradition and other tips are
based on scientific research. Students may want to try some companions and observe what happens,
or set up "fair tests." Don't be overwhelmed by the possibilities. Consider simplifying your plant
decisions by surrounding your garden with an entire border of brilliant and aromatic plants that invite
pest predators and parasites and tell would-be plant marauders to scram!

1. Attracting Beneficial Insects (and others)

Many insects, such as small parasitic wasps, green lacewings, and lady beetles, depend on certain
pests for nourishment. When pests are in short supply, these do-gooders feed on pollen and nectar.
Plants with tiny flowers, such as members of the carrot (umbel family) and daisy (composite or aster)
families, are among their favorites. (Most composite flowers, such as the zinnia pictured below, are
actually comprised of many tiny flowers, called disk flowers, which grow in the center and
surrounding

longer, flat ray flowers, which resemble petals.) You can encourage the pest-control squad by
mixing the following members of those two plant families with your vegetables: anise, dill, caraway,
fennel, yarrow, sweet cicely, zinnia, cosmos, and marigold, or by leaving related weeds (e.g., queen
Anne's lace and wild daisies) nearby. Other small-flowered herbs such as thyme and catnip also
appeal to these garden helpers. If you devote a section of your vegetable garden to perennial flowers,
try coneflower, aster, liatris, coreopsis, and black-eyed Susan. Fruit-bearing trees and shrubs also
offer food and shelter to birds, many of which feed on garden pests.

2. Luring Away Pests
Some plants are simply so attractive to pests that you can use them to lure garden intruders away
from your precious vegetable crops. (These attractants are referred to as "trap crops.") Once the trap

crops are infested with pests, you can pull them out and discard them, pests and all. Try these:
nasturtiums for aphids, radishes or nasturtiums for flea beetles, dill and lovage for tomato
hornworms, eggplant for potato bugs. Do they really work? Challenge students to conduct tests to
find out. They can try the plants listed above or experiment with other plants that seem to be pest
magnets.

3. Growing Plants That Offend!

Gardeners have long held that some plants are repugnant to certain pests. (Some of these claims are
even supported by scientific studies!) Lots of pests find their way to favorite crops through their
sense of smell. It follows that we can also use smelly plants to defend plants! Herbs often exude
strong fragrances (from their essential oils) that are believed to repel insects or confound them by
disguising the smell of neighboring plants. These aromatic plants include tansy, mint, basil, thyme,
and santolina. Gardeners often tuck garlic and onions between other vegetables for the same purpose.
Here are some plants thought to repel specific pests:

 onions for carrot rust flies
 tansy for colorado potato beetles
 marigolds and basil for flea beetles on eggplant
 marigolds for Mexican bean beetles
 nasturtiums for squash bugs
 marigolds, mint, or thyme for cabbage moths

Marigolds are one of the flowers most commonly considered to control pests, particularly root-
feeding nematodes in soil. Consider sharing with your students that scientists have found that
marigolds can, in fact, help control these pests. However, there is a gap between common practice —
planting a marigold between tomato plants, for instance — and scientific evidence. Research has
shown that the flowers need to be planted very thickly each year and turned into the soil at the end of
each growing season in order to affect the nematodes. (This presents another great opportunity for

student investigations.) But don't be deterred from growing them; even small numbers of marigolds
add vibrance to a garden and may attract helpful insects.

Creating Artistic Edible Landscapes

Some gardens sport vegetables growing in neat rows and flowers blooming in separate beds, with no
consorting allowed. In yet other landscapes, flowers, vegetables, and herbs are inextricably mingled
because, well, they look so good together! The term edible landscape typically means integrating
food plants in ornamental settings. This can be as simple as tucking a few lettuce plants or red chard
into that flower bed, or as complex as landscaping an entire schoolyard with an eye toward food
production, site diversity, and beauty. In either case, cultivating visually compelling companions can
become a design exercise in which your keen observers consider color, textures, height, and form as
they decide what to plant where. What's more, it's plain fun! Here are some suggestions to prompt
your thinking:

 Create a border of lettuces, other greens, or parsely interspersed with alyssum.

 Grow a colorful salad in a small plot or container using pansies, violas, lettuce, calendula, and
nasturtiums.

 Put hot peppers, which often have colorful fruits, in containers or borders. (Some are actually
sold as ornamentals and are not edible.)

 Incorporate herbs that are visually appealing: geraniums, lavender, rosemary, chives, parsley,
and lemon thyme.

 If you use tomatoes ornamentally use determinate or bush types, which are less likely than
others to get rangy. (Cherry tomatoes add a nice visual spark.)

 Ornamental corn and some popcorn varieties are beautifully colored. Plants tend to be shorter
than sweet corn and some even have miniature ears.

 Swiss chard has lovely leaves and the varieties ?Rhubarb' and ?Bright Lights' are brilliantly
colored. You can cut back leaves that get too large and tattered.

 Fennel and asparagus both have feathery leaves that mingle well with cosmos flowers and
make a nice backdrop for a flower bed.

 Try growing purple-podded beans on trellises or poles along with morning glories or other
flowering vines.

 Consider the lovely eggplant. It has interesting leaves and its fruits come in lots of shapes and
colors: long skinny Japanese types, miniature white "eggs," and lavender Italian varieties, for
instance.

Companion Planting INCREASES Food Production by 250 Percent
One of the goals of research in South Africa is to look at ways to boost food production with the
practice of intercropping (companion planting, or growing crops together) a cereal grain crop, like
sorghum, with bean crops. We have been intercropping sorghum with legumes planted in row of zai
pits.

Why grow beans? Being legumes, bean crops can improve soils by converting nitrogen from the air
into forms that crops can use.

The crops we are working with are quite tolerant of dry conditions and produce vines that cover the
ground, protect6ing it from the intense tropical sun and creating an environments in which soil
microorganisms, can thrive.

Moreover, the legumes provide the farmer with a harvest of dried, edible beans.

What are zai holes? The zai system originated in West Africa as a way to cope with drought and hard
encrusted soil. Drought tolerant grain crops such as sorghum or millet are planted in pits about 12
inches, 6 inches deep.

With the excavated soil thrown to the downhill side, the pits act as tiny water catchment basins,
making maximum use of what little rainfall is received. Several handfuls of manure are traditionally
placed in each pit, concentrating nutrients near the crop roots.

Have we seen any benefits? The results we have so far are from year one of a sorghum-legumes
intercropping strategy within the zai system. Most of the legumes we have tried have grown very
well, but cowpea produced the most dried beans.

It increases total grain production by 1,000 kilograms (250%) from 400 kilograms per hectare
when grown sorghum alone to about 1,400 kilograms per hectare when grown together with
cowpeas.

It also increased soil nitrogen as well as nitrogen taken up by the sorghum plants.

All of this is very encouraging from the perspective of the smallholder farmer, because it means they
have a way to improve their soils while greatly increasing food production.

NATURAL SOLUTIONS in Africa by Using Companion Planting
Across East Africa, thousands of farmers are planting weeds in their maize fields (Companion
Planting). Bizarre as it sounds, their technique is actually raising yields by giving the insect pests
something else to chew on besides maize.

It is better than pesticides and a lot cheaper, said Ziadin Khan, whose idea it is.

And it has raised farm yields by 60-70 Percents.
In East Africa, maize fields face two major pests, and Khan has a solution to both. The first is an
insect called the stem borer. True to its name, it s larvae eat their way through a third of the regions'
maize most years.

But Khan discovered that the borer in even fonder of a local weed, napier grass. By planting napier
grass in their fields , farmers can lure the stem borers away from the maize and into a honey trap. For
the grass produces a sticky substance that traps and kills stem borer larvae.

The second major pest is Striga, a parasitic plant that wrecks 10 billion dollars worth damage on
maize crops every year, threating the livelihoods of one hundred million Africans.

Weeding Striga is one of the most time consuming activities for millions of African women farmers,
says Khan.

But he has an antidote: another weed, called Desmodium. It seems to release some sort of chemical
that Striga does not like. At any rate, where farmers plant Desmodium between rows of maize, Striga
will not grow.

Khan's cheap fixes for Striga and stem borer are spreading like wildfire through the fields of East
Africa.

Trials on more than 2,000 farms are finished. It is out of our hands now, says Khan's boss Hans
Herren , who is the director of the International Centre for Insect Physiology and Ecology in Nairobi.

The ideas are being taken up by framers in countries such as Ethiopia where we have never worked.

Khan's novel way of fighting pests is one of the host of Low-Tech Innovations boosting
production by 100 percent or more on millions of poor Thirds World farms in the past
decade.

This Sustainable Agriculture just happens to be the biggest movement in Third World Farming
today, dwarfing the tentative forays in genetic manipulation. It seems peasant farmers have a long
way to go before they exhaust the possibilities of traditional agriculture
