Diversifying plant placement is an ' old as dirt' organic gardeners trick.

Mixing the species so you do not present a smorgasbord of same type plants in one spot.

You can even find some gardens inter-planting food an herbs with flowers.

You can also inter-plant bug food type plants to draw the bugz and cats away from the flowers.

They love milkweed and Sea Kale in my garden.



Sea Kale (in the middle)*note the chewed up Sea kale leaves while other plants are clean*
