Companion planting is a clever way to get plants to work together to protect each other from pests and diseases and create a more ideal growing environment. While you might typically think of companion planting being used for crops, it can also be effective for ornamental plants, too. For example, there are plenty of sunflower companion plants.
These are plants that help grow sunflowers more successfully, as well as plants that benefit from the presence of sunflowers. It's companion planting that goes both ways, where the plants offer each other benefits while looking beautiful together.
