Strawberries are very susceptible to fungal diseases. If you mix some garlic and onions into your strawberry fields, the danger of fungal disease is significantly reduced.

The following 5 plant varieties are included in this intercropping seed set:

Alpine strawberry (Fragaria alpina/ vesca var. semperflorens)
The alpine strawberry is a cultivated form of the wild strawberry with long lasting harvesting periods and larger ‘berries’.
Strawberry 'Rote Baron Solemacher' (Fragaria vesca var. semperflorens)
Old variety of the alpine strawberry. Very aromatic.
Onion 'Globo' (Allium cepa)
Globo is a vegetable onion variety with particularly large, slightly oval-shaped onions.
Welsh onion, Japanese bunching onion, Scallions (Allium fistulosum)
Plenty fresh greens paired with a lovely onion aroma, throughout wintertime.
Chives (Allium schoenoprasum)
Chives have been cultivated in Europe since the Middle Ages, but also grow wild in alpine areas.

The seeds of each variety are packaged in a separate sachet.

Intercropping or companion planting is the implementation of a sensible crop balance in your vegetable patch, just as nature demonstrates it. Although the competition between plants is usually intense, as every plant strives to get the most light, water and nutrient conditions, there are always so-called companion plants. This term refers to plant species that can live well side by side because they do not interfere with each other but very often actually support and strengthen each other. Those companions are sure to create a good and balanced neighbourhood in your vegetable patch.

We have developed a series of intercropping and companion planting seed sets. Each set contains 3 to 6 plant varieties, which are very well suited for cultivation as companion species. In most cases, these are vegetables and herbs. It is possible to alternate the companion plants in rows, within a row or also in mixed variety as it happens with square-foot gardening.
The immediate neighbouring plants should complement each other and not attack each other‘s basis of life. Ideally you will find neighbours such as carrot and salad (deep roots and shallow roots) or cabbage and peas (heavy and feeble demand in nutrients) or maize and pumpkin (sun- and shade-loving plants).
