Chives have the ability to repel aphids. Mint not only enhances both the taste and health benefits of dishes, but also improves flavor. Alyssum serves as an attractant for pollinators and promotes the presence of green lacewings, which are natural predators of aphids. Avoid planting peas in close proximity to garlic and onions as they can impede the growth of peas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlavour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet \u0026amp; soft skinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation Ideas:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shell peas and rinse under cold water.
