Bellingham Planting Bed Installation

Like a blank canvas, a new plant bed offers you the chance to get creative and fill it with whatever you can imagine. A plant bed gives you a place to plant bushes and colorful annuals and perennials that can fill your yard with beauty. And flowers, of course, are essential for butterflies and other pollinators, so creating more space for blooming plants will help roll out the welcome mat for these beneficial creatures. Plant beds can also be used as vegetable gardens to grow your own food.
The options are nearly endless, but first comes the location of the bed and then the actual building part. Being mindful of the type of plants you wish to place in your planting bed is also important. Some plants require full sun, others mostly shade. Most flowering annuals and perennials appreciate a loamy soil with plenty of compost added to it. Other considerations include in-ground vs raised bed gardens.
