Garden Plans > 2015: Square Foot Garden

About this Garden Plan

The sun comes in from the top left corner, so plants are arranged in each box in height order and with plants that require less maintenance in the middle of each. All vining plants such as tomato's, squash and cucumbers are on the outside rows of the bottom 2 and far right 2 boxes on the back row and will grow up the trellis instead of spreading horizontally.
