Planting and Care Guide
- Plant Variety: Suitable for a wide selection-grow tomatoes, lettuces, dahlias, lavenders, or mixed annuals side by side.
- Site Selection: Choose a spot with at least 6 hours of sun for most flowering plants or vegetables; partial shade will suit leafy greens better.
- Soil Preparation: Fill your raised bed with a quality mix-blend loam, compost, and organic matter for balanced drainage and nutrition. Aim for pH 6.0–7.0 for most edibles.
- Seasonal Planting: Most annuals and seedlings can be started from early spring; hardy perennials and winter greens can be sown in autumn.
- Watering & Fertilisers: Check soil moisture regularly. Mulch to retain water and feed with balanced fertiliser every 4–6 weeks during peak growth.
Design Tips
Companion planting can help improve growth and deter pests — try mixing marigolds with tomatoes or interplanting chives with carrots to support healthier soil. For a polished finish, border the edges of your raised bed with low-growing plants such as thyme or creeping sedum to create attractive, living borders.
