Mustard, known for its zesty leaves, thrives alongside a variety of companion plants. Corn provides shade for mustard, delaying the onset of bolting during the hottest months of the growing season. Sage and thyme add aromatic appeal and help to deter pests. Likewise, onions serve as beneficial neighbors, helping to deter pests, and reducing the risk of infestations. This combination fosters a harmonious garden ecosystem, where space is efficiently utilized, and the health and flavor of the mustard crop are enriched by its companions.
