I want to plant a garden this spring

[Asrais]

I have a gnome in my garden - never had any trouble with him!

If ya want a good insect repellent, Wormwood is great for keeping mozzies away - even works dry. Cotton lavender works to and if ya dry it you can use it instead of moth balls.
Also, do some research on companion planting - basically, planting certain plants together to help repel harmful bugs or diseases without loosing all the beneficial ones.

Do you haveto take extra care of the gnome. And thanks for the tips!

You ucan go beyond lant communities and look up plant communities ( communities are a bit, iffy in terms of garden research), but communities work with natures naturral plant scemes

On the west coast a good example would be

White oak
madrone
cherry
wolfberry
seaspray


and thers a few more that go with iut. But these all natiuraly grow WITH that oak. So we get nature to work for us instead of the uphul battle well NEVER win ( going against natire)
