5. Grow with Tomatoes
If you have had a garden for a few years or if you have simply researched the best way to grow vegetables, there is a good chance that you have come across information about what types of plants that you should grow together and what types of plants that should not be grown near each other.
When it comes to asparagus, one of the best plants that you can grow next to asparagus is tomatoes. The reason for this is because asparagus will help to repel nematodes that often attack tomato plants and can destroy an entire crop. In addition, tomato plants will help to repel asparagus beetles.
You can easily space your asparagus about a foot apart and then add a tomato plant to each end in order to help keep the beetles away. Planting tomatoes and asparagus together can help ensure that you will have a wonderful crop of both types of vegetables.
