How Raised Garden Beds Can Enhance Your Garden

Gardening in our yards can be challenging at times. Our soil may be drained of nutrients, have poor drainage, or be compacted. These are common issues that many gardeners face every year. This can cause flowers and vegetables to not grow properly or not at all. Raised garden beds allow you to have your garden without those concerns. The benefits of raised garden bed boxes include:

· Soil Quality: Raised garden beds allow you to control your soil quality. When you first fill your beds, you should use a pre-made soil mix. After the growing season, you should replenish the nutrients through composting. There is no need to worry about outside factors such as drainage issues, pests, or soil composition.

· Water Control: Planter boxes allow you to spread irrigation throughout the box and any excess water is easily drained at the bottom of the garden bed. This prevents your garden from becoming waterlogged. You can also install irrigation systems that can minimize the use of water and keep your plants hydrated.

· Insect Protection: Insects are a big issue for most gardens. There are ants, termites, rabbits, and more that can potentially damage your plants. Raised beds keep your plants high off the ground and limit access to potential pests that can destroy your plants.

· Utilize More Space: With raised flower boxes, you are not limited to your yard. You can install raised garden beds on your patio, back deck, or porch.
