Warning: images like these are pure garden porn - and while they haven't been airbrushed per se, remember that they DO capture gardens 'at their finest'... on any given day, these gardens, like yours and mine, can be found with the proverbial 'curlers in their hair' (and maybe some saggy melons, too)...Above: a small urban lot used 100%
I love these flip top cold frames that fit perfectly over the uniformly sized raised beds. This one is for the industrious, the imaginative, or the really really wealthy:) A handy do-it-yourself-er could mimic this idea on a budget, though...
..simple raised beds with a wonderful diversity of vegetables and herbs. This is a nice solution to a garden area separate from the lawn and living space of a suburban yard.
I love this garden: it is neat and tidy and made from simple construct. Concrete blocks form beds within what used to be a large grass lawn. A much better use of space;)
Erase the beds and arbor at the rear of this lot and what do you have: 95% of most suburban back yards,,,grass and a privacy fence. What an obtainable transformation!!
