Raised garden beds are an efficient and effective way to cultivate healthy and productive plants. Gardeners can enjoy a host of benefits by using raised garden beds. They provide:

• Drainage and aeration - improved drainage and aeration, reducing the risks of soil compaction and waterlogging
• Garden maintenance - simplified garden maintenance by reducing the need for bending and kneeling while planting, weeding, and harvesting due to the raised height
• Pest protection – low-cost protection against pests and lengthen the growing season
• Soil management - better control of soil quality and moisture, enabling customisation of the soil (e.g., chemical composition and moisture level) to the needs of the plants being grown

The selection of flowers best suited for raised flower beds depends on several factors, including the size and location of the bed and personal preferences. While some popular options include annuals such as petunias, marigolds, and zinnias that add vibrant colours to the garden, perennials like roses, daisies, and lavender require less maintenance and will return every year. Before selecting flowers, it is essential to consider their sunlight, water, and soil requirements to ensure they thrive in the raised flower beds.

Raised planter boxes are a sensible option for indoor gardening, especially for those with limited spaces like balconies and patios. It is crucial to select raised planter boxes that suit the available space and plants’ needs, such as their lighting, water, and soil requirements. Adequate drainage is also crucial to prevent waterlogging and promotion of healthy plant growth.

The ideal depth for raised vegetable beds is 12-18 inches. This provides enough space for healthy root growth. However, the depth may vary depending on the type of plants being grown and the soil quality.
