I would like to know what plants help repel pests and disease that affect apple trees.

clover, chive, garlic and leek, I think this year I will have lots and lots of garlic planted along with marigolds, They have some nice websites for companion planting wikipedia seems to have a fairly complete list. Good luck :o)Deanna

In our raised beds along the driveway have a double row of everbearing strawberries in front with rhubarb behind spaced 3' apart from each other & at least 4' from the trunk of the dwarf trees, then I plant garlic & onion between the double row of strawberries & between the rhubarbs in hopes to repel deer, but it doesn't stop them when they're hungry.
