Neither in the vegetable garden nor in the garden can one do without the basics of agricultural technology. First of all, this is the choice of plants for a favorable neighborhood.

Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", a scientist agronomist and landscape designer, told what can be planted next to the thuja.
Thujas are especially popular with owners of country houses. They are often used to create hedges.
But not all crops get along well with thujas, just as thujas are not happy with every neighborhood.
What to plant next to thuja
The difficulty is that this plant requires slightly acidic soil and regular watering.
That is, it is not so easy to find an ideal neighbor for such conditions, but it is possible.
1. Try planting hostas, which of all perennials will feel best in the shade under the pine needles.
2. Another unpretentious and shade-loving option is the fern.
3. Heucheras are an excellent addition to flowering shrubs.
4. And of the flowers, you can safely plant lilies nearby.
Cannot be planted with thuja
First, keep fruit trees and berry bushes away from the thuja. Together they will not have enough nutrients, which will affect fruiting.
Secondly, birch and willow are very fond of moisture, which is why thujas will have a hard time.
Thirdly, dahlias can also interfere with the development of thuja.
By following these tips, you can grow a beautiful and well-groomed garden without worrying about the development of plants.
