The results revealed that growth parameters of coriander, fenugreek and soya, such as seed germination (%) , plant height, number of leaves and branches/plant were found to be higher under the treatment T2 (coriander sole), T3 (fenugreek sole) and T4 (soya alone) followed by their individual intercropping with gladiolus, viz. T5 (gladiolus + coriander), T6 (gladiolus + fenugreek) and T7 (gladiolus + soya).
