Companion Planting with Herbs

One of the things we love about herbs is the many uses they have: beauty, flavor, medicine, and food.  One additional benefit they have, is as good companions for your other plants such as flowers and veggies.


Beebalm – very attractive to pollinators such as bees, bumbles, hummingbirds and butterflies.  We have our beebalm planted in the middle of our winter squash and pumpkin patch – while it can be a bit of a pain to rototill around it in the spring, we’ve found it to be so valuable to leave it there for the benefit of getting all our squash and pumpkins well pollinated.  It blooms later in the spring and early summer, so matches up well with the bloom time of our winter squash and pumpkins, while also provide another later source of nectar for our resident hummingbirds.
