As well as most off the above, our favourite "attractors" are poached agg plant and nasturtium. We plant them alongside crops prone to infestations such as broad beans as sacrificial plants as they really are aphid magnets. The aphids then draw in the ladybirds, lacewings and the like in huge numbers.
