Re: Companion Planting

I would love to hear ideas for companion planting.  Is the Colorado State
Guide an online thing.  Is there anything online about this.
I planted red sage flowers next to some of my tomatos this year.  I read that
tomatos like red mulch so I substituted red flowers.  Real smart, eh.
I think tomatos must hate these flowers.  Also, we haven't had rain since the
beginning of June as well as some very high temps (zone 6) so the tomatos in
full sun (the ones next to the red sage) look awful while the tomatos in
shade look great with lots of tomatos.
I just realized I spelled tomatos wrong and I am NOT going to correct it.
