You may remember last month that I told you which six plants were my absolute must-haves for the garden, and asked you which ones were yours? The response was overwhelming! I hope that the following choices from a wide readership make you think about your own plant choices, and inspire you!
Companion planting is an organic method of growing two or more different plants together which will have mutual benefits to each other.
Mint is great to grow in the garden, despite the horror stories. It stays green all Summer, looks and smells great and can be used in mint sauses, mint tea and Summer cocktails like Pimms and mojitios.
Mint is perennial which means it will come back year after year. The plant will go dormant in the Winter, but it will sprout again in Spring. Mint can be divided and re-potted in Spring or Autumn.
