Companion Planting for Ornamentals

17 years ago

I'm fairly new to gardening. I've been in my home for over a decade, yet last fall was the first time I've attempted anything more than some basic foundation shrubbery in my backyard. Some things have done well, others, not so much.

What I'm looking for is a resource that says something like, "If your Plectranthus 'Zulu Wonder' really likes the light conditions, soil conditions etc. where it is, here are some plants that will do really well next to it because it likes practically the exact same conditions."

When I search for info on companion planting, I get lots of sources for recommendations for produce gardening, but not so much for purely ornamentals. (But my tomatoes have seemed much happier this season with all the basil and marigolds I planted around their bases.)

All suggestions much appreciated. Thanks.
