Rarely can a summer resident afford to plant crops alone in beds: as a rule, plots are not very large, so it is necessary to consider options for compact arrangement.

It is important to take into account the ability of plants to get along with each other.

The popular berry crop can peacefully coexist with several plant options. Particular attention should be paid to garlic. According to the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , the plant will prevent pest attacks.

Onions have a similar effect.

If you want to protect yourself from slugs, you should consider planting sage. The spice can even be grown between rows of strawberries.

Parsley also has a positive effect on the development of strawberries: there will be much fewer pests, and you will increase the amount of aromatic greens.

The berry crop goes well with spinach and lettuce. You can plant nasturtiums and peonies nearby. It is believed that "flower neighbors" improve the taste of strawberries.
