SECTION: Seed Collections, Companion planting works for many reasons. Attracting pollinators for better fruit set is important, (especially with squashes and some tomatoes.) Attracting insects that eat the insects we don’t want is another very important benefit. Most predator insects need nectar and pollen to complete their life cycle. Some plants have smell or tastes that repel pests, and some secrete chemicals from their roots to repel pests. This collection gives your garden all 4 of those defenses, so that when aphids and other pests arrive, the right predators and conditions will be there to control them, and the pollinators will make sure your harvest is abundant. 8 pkts.
