Raised beds are a great idea and perfect way of growing a wide variety of plants, soft fruit and vegetables in your garden. 

Raised beds are particularly useful for gardening especially if you have restricted mobility as they reduce the need to bend.

Almost any plants can be grown in raised beds, for example

• Vegetables
• Soft fruits such as blackberries, blueberries, strawberries and currants
• Alpines
• Herbaceous perennials
• Small shrubs and small trees
