Crimsonsketch's Backyard - Raised Bed garden

Created on Wednesday, 07 May 08

UPDATE (June 8): Supplies came this weekend and the garden is all set up.
There are few more plants I’d like to incorporate on the 2nd tier, but I don’t have any yet.

——————————————————————————————

UPDATE (June 3): The shed’s been down for a few weeks, the debris was removed last week, and the supplied for the raised bed are arriving Saturday morning (stones, dirt and cedar mulch).
New Photos soon….
—————————————————————————————-

This garden doesn’t exist yet.
I am tearing down the shed this weekend and the raised bed will be erected in it’s place.
It is the North West corner of the yard so it gets dappled light from the east, full sun from the south, and part sun from the west.
I will be planting flowers & herbs that do well in full/partial sun with well draining soil.

It will have 3 tiers coming out from the Northwest corner, each about 1’ higher than the other.

As this is going over the same sight that had the shed, I’ll be using the same shape (square), so the bed will be 3 raised squares, each smaller than the first, growing towards the corner to make a diamond-shaped bed.
