Raised bed gardening is the fastest-growing garden strategy today, and
Raised Bed Revolution is the definitive guidebook to mastering this
consistently proven and effective gardening method.
Raised Bed Revolution provides you with information on size
requirements for constructing raised beds, height suggestions,
types of materials you can use, and creative tips for fitting the
maximum garden capacity into small spaces--including vertical
gardening.
Enhanced with gorgeous photography, this book covers subjects such
as growing-medium options, rooftop gardening, cost-effective
gardening solutions, planting tips, watering strategies (automatic water
drip systems and hand watering), and more. The process of creating and
building raised beds is a cinch, too, thanks to the extensive gallery of
design ideas and step-by-step projects.
This gardening strategy is taking serious root. Why? Several
reasons:
- Raised beds allow gardeners to practice space efficiency as well as
accessibility (the beds can be customized to be any height).
- Raised beds permit gardeners to use their own soil, and they can be
designed with wheels for easy portability if partial sunlight is a
problem.
- Water conservation is easier for gardeners who use raised beds.
- Pest control is assisted because most garden pests can't make the leap
up into the raised bed. For yards that struggle with drainage, raised
bed gardening offers a no-brainer solution. Raised beds simply create
a more interesting yard!
