The two plants on the left are tomatoes. 4 plants on right are 2 Green Peppers and 2 cucumber plants. I’d love any and all tips! Question I have is what should I plant (if anything) in the corners and far left side? ![Attachment 1 of 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/UkEUs5kL3mtnAKskoWxpsXQ9waVvD_tR9bNxbhmfL-Y/XwYxzPlMShCabGSsYmsh3w.webp?size=large) ## 6 comments ### GARDEN GIRL commented on 2025-05-28 Ok I have stevia plants ### GARDEN GIRL commented on 2025-05-28 And I have herbs in my corner that I put in potato salad Sage, peppermint, rosemary, chives, oregano, lemon balm, thyme, English thyme, catnip, cilantro, choc mint, lavender, spearmint, ( note: not all of these I have in potato salad ) dill, and basil cat nip spreads so put it in a bigger spot. Sorry not all of those in potato salad but just a lot of herb options to plant and enjoy. ### GARDEN GIRL commented on 2025-05-28 Sorry and parsley flat leaved and curled ### GARDEN GIRL commented on 2025-05-28 Depending on where you live cilantro is done I hope you have fun I love gardening and I’ve done it for about 12 years ### EnokiTada commented on 2025-05-31 I second the suggestion on herbs… I like to plant basil, spring onions, cilantro and so on. Like a salsa garden or a Margherita garden:) . Nasturtiums are an awesome plant to provide a visual appeal and they are good companion plants for tomatoes ### GARDEN GIRL commented on 2025-05-31 We’ll have fun I just want to say it again not all of those I put in potato salad lol --- _Source: the Planta community (https://getplanta.com).
