Plan a beautiful vegetable garden

Think outside of squares; use circles and curves. Say no to rows; plant in patterns. Mix with flowers. Support with fine frames. Vegetable gardens can be a beautiful highlight to your landscape. Here is the video:

Well Nan, you are absolutely correct, row are actually the largest space waster that we can use in our gardens. And using the shape of a keyhole is actually the maximal space saving shape that you can use. You can fit more plants in a keyhole or other round structure than a row.

Furthermore you can better take advantage of companion planting in these spaces.

Thanks for the idea! 8)
