Many gardeners know about the importance of crop rotation and the rules for planting certain crops.

There are categories of plants that cannot grow fully if they are located close to each other.

Therefore, fans of growing indoor flowers have a reasonable question: how safe is it to plant ornamental plants next to seedlings?

Let's turn to the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

  1. Diseases and pests. If the flower shows signs of disease or is affected by pests, it is better not to place seedlings nearby.
  2. Growing conditions. Plants that grow in similar conditions can coexist close to each other. Make sure they do not block each other's light.
  3. Bad neighborhood. For example, milkweed can suppress the growth of other plants, and orchids do not tolerate onions and greens.
