Layered Planting Beds

How do you make a layered garden bed?

Start by adding any elements you want to include in the design, like a garden structure or existing trees. Then, let your imagination run wild! Keep in mind the layering principles—tallest plants in the middle or back (if against a structure), mid-height plants next, with shorter plants as a border.

What is a layered garden called?

There's also the the layered garden method, also called lasagna garden because of the layering process. Called by several names, whatever you call it, the principles and benefits are basically the same, and all save time, money and backaches!

Does hugelkultur really work?

Hugelkultur beds are exceptional at providing moisture to plants throughout the growing season. The gradual decay of wood is a consistent source of long-term nutrients and moisture for the plants, and the composting wood generates heat which can extend the growing season.
