Forget those confusing companion planting charts and just try this method#garden #companionplanting
In this segment, Nicole Johnsey Burke introduces her "2x3 method" for garden planning, which replaces traditional companion‑planting charts. She explains that gardeners should first separate plants into two frost‑tolerance groups (those that tolerate frost and those that do not) and then further sort each group into four size categories: large, medium, small, and herbs. For the frost season, a gardener selects one plant from each size category within the frost‑tolerant group to fill a garden bed, repeating this for every bed. When the frost risk disappears, the same process is repeated using the frost‑sensitive plants, swapping them into the beds previously occupied by frost‑tolerant species. This systematic approach lets gardeners plan entire beds without reference charts; detailed instructions are provided in the video caption.
