		<description>Hello LouiseH

Thank you so much for the link - it&#039;s brilliant.

Yes I agree, there are lots of conflicting bits of advice out there. I grew brassicas in my rhubarb patch last winter and they did grow well (didn&#039;t know rhubarb was beneficial at the time!)

Hi Ann

I planted leeks beside my runner beans which was a mistake as they hate each other! Now I’m being very careful about what goes where as I want the best fruit and veg possible. 

Hope that your veg patch works out well!

Hi Stephanie

Thanks for that great tip. Luckily I only have orange marigolds on the plot this year. I did read somewhere that yellow nasturtiums are a good sacrificial plant near brassicas.

Hi Bridget

Isn’t it great when desperation drives you to discover new things.

Good luck with the veg patch.

BTW we are growing cabbage trees this year!

Hi Cathy

Great idea. I’m trying to use all our space too. It’s amazing how much space that we wasted in the past.</description>
