Hello all--
I would love to have raised beds like Mark's, but I'm also thinking that for perennials like rhubarb, blueberry bushes, etc that
something shorter would be more realistic/useful. I am trying to design long-term; our backyard is chain-link fenced, and I'd
like to create perennial beds along the inner L of the corner. What are your collective thoughts on having a 2 ft wide, 18" high
galvanized steel "L" that's approximately 40' long on each side just for perennials? Would that be deep enough to reap the benefits
of hugelkultur style layering?
Thanks in advance,
Meesh
