What is the best setup for a garden?
As a general rule, put tall veggies toward the back of the bed, mid-sized ones in the middle, and smaller plants in the front or as a border. Consider adding pollinator plants to attract beneficial insects that can not only help you get a better harvest, but will also prey on garden pests. Key Tips for Successful Plant Arrangement: Layering: Arrange plants with varying heights for a layered look, placing taller plants at the back and shorter ones in the front. Repetition: Repeating plant clusters throughout the garden creates rhythm and continuity.There are two basic rules when arranging plants in the beds: 1) space the individual plants so that they touch each other when they reach their mature size, and 2) overlap the masses of plants and connect them so that they flow without space between them. Avoid gaps or large open areas between masses.
