Interesting gardening titbit :)

Saw this interesting titbit when I visited a garden some time back. This is a fascinating technique of planting three different kind of plants together and each of them plays a role and helps in the growth of the other two :)

Gardening Tips

Among some of the interesting spring planting tips I came across recently, a few sounded very simple and doable. Haven't tried these yet but I think I would give these a try pretty soon :)

1. Water plants with chamomile tea, it is a great way to keep plants healthy. Use it when watering to ward of bacterial and fungal infections, just make sure the tea is completely cooled off before using.

2. Use cooking water for plants. The water used to cook pasta or boil vegetables is full of nutrients, instead of throwing it away, cool to room temperature and use to water plants.
