companion plants and how to use them

This is a wonderful book for biointensive organic gardeners. It is packed full of information about how plants affect each other. It also has information about how different plants or weeds are used. It is lacking in some of the latin nomenclature when referring to certain plants, but overall they do a good job. The body of the book is an alphabetical list of vegetables and other herbs, plants and some vocabulary having to do with organic gardening. It is easy to read and easy to use when planning your garden.
