Can anyone recommend a good guide to companion planting please. I grow marigolds and basil with my tomatoes in the greenhouse and they seem to keep them healthy, or it might just be good luck.

I'm sure there are more solutions I just wondered if anyone new of a book or anything that may have the information all in one place. Thanks

This is one of my favourite books of all my gardening books. I think out of print now, but I picked mine up secondhand from Amazon really cheaply, and I see they still have some second hand ones.http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flowerdews-Complete-Book-Companion-Gardening/dp/1856260542/ref=sr_1_11?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1390131148&sr=1-11&keywords=Bob+Flowerdew

I've also got the Flowerdew book and it is good although quite old. There are a lot of views about the effectiveness of some schemes. As in all aspects of gardening there are so many variables, nothing can be taken for granted. Here are a couple of links.
