Lavender I don't grow because it is one of the few plants that don't particularly like heavy mulches around its roots and I mulch heavy. But it is a mint, and mints are listed as companions to Brassicas. I never tried it to see if it works though. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Also thanks for the dill advice. I will be starting broccoli and rappini in the other raised bed, so if I do make a dill border I'll see if that helps. Might just use it with the greens as I mentioned, or pot it up separately. |
