what grows well alongside corn
Plant corn alongside of beans, parsley, peas and potatoes---with a benefit to all. Squash, cucumber, melon and pumpkin plants are also complementary vegetable companions for corn. Tomatoes and corn are both attacked by the same worm, so avoid planting them too close together in the vegetable garden. Radishes grow well alongside lettuce, peas, beans and cucumber. They are also complemented by a planting of carrots. Chives will improve the flavor and growth of carrots. Other complementary plants for carrots are onion, lettuce, bean, pepper, radish, tomato and peas.
