00:0010 companion plants that grow perfectly with calendula

00:03Zinnias

00:05Sun-loving zinnias match calendula's needs, attract hummingbirds and bees,

00:11shelter predators, and bloom non-stop with regular deadheading.

00:15Beans

00:16Nitrogen-fixing beans in rich soil improve airflow, attract predatory wasps,

00:23and interplant beautifully with calendula for space-efficient beds.

00:27Barrage

00:28Barrage's starry blooms lure bumblebees and hoverflies,

00:32while deep taproots loosen soil.

00:35Self-seeding volunteers extend pollinator activity.

00:39Carrots

00:40Calendula shades carrots, aiding germination and reducing aphids.

00:45Its scent deters carrot flies as ground beetles patrol beds.

00:50Lettuce

00:50Calendula's dappled shade keeps lettuce cool, slowing bolting.

00:55Together they deter aphids, suppress weeds, and maximize harvests.

01:01Tomatoes

01:02Under tomatoes, calendula lures aphid predators and may deter nematodes.

01:07Both relish sun and well-drained, fertile soil.

01:12Cosmos

01:12Aerie Cosmos backdrops filter light to calendula, share pollinators, harbor parasitic wasps, and self-seed unless regularly deadheaded.

01:23Chives

01:23Chive clumps complement calendula, repel pests like aphids, and attract hoverflies.

01:30Divide periodically to maintain vigorous, pollinator-rich growth.

01:35Peppers

01:36Peppers thrive beside calendula, which confuses pests and attracts hoverflies, slight shading moderate soil temperatures for even ripening.

01:46Squash

01:47Calendula deters squash bugs, attracts ladybug larvae, and guards against nematodes, while sprawling squash shades roots and conserves moisture.
