Raised beds
Growing vegetables in raised garden beds is becoming increasingly popular. This practical solution allows you to cultivate plants even in small spaces, making it perfect for people who don’t have a large garden.
The trend for raised beds originally came from the United Kingdom, where growing fruit, vegetables and flowers in this way is extremely popular and works brilliantly in areas with poor soil or wet ground.

Benefits of Greenspot Raised Garden Beds
Raised vegetable beds are a simple and effective way to make gardening easier and more enjoyable. Here are the main advantages of Greenspot wooden raised beds:
-
Aesthetic design – All Greenspot raised garden beds feature a stylish, timeless appearance. With different sizes and colours available, you can easily choose the model that fits perfectly with your garden layout.
-
Comfortable gardening – With a height of around 80 cm, our elevated planters allow you to work while standing, without bending or straining your back. Perfect for gardeners of all ages.
-
Ideal for gardens of any size – Raised beds clearly define your growing area, separating flower borders, vegetable patches and leisure zones. They make it easier to move around the garden and protect plants from pets and playing children.
-
Suitable for wet areas – Greenspot wooden raised beds can also be used on damp ground. During heavy rainfall, plants in traditional soil can become waterlogged, while raised beds provide better drainage and protection.
-
Perfect for poor soil – If your garden has low-quality or sandy soil, a raised vegetable bed can be filled with rich compost or high-quality substrate, giving plants the best possible growing conditions.
-
Earlier harvests – The soil inside a raised bed warms up faster in the spring, allowing for earlier sowing and quicker growth – ideal for extending your growing season.
-
Protection for plants – Vegetables and flowers grown in raised beds are better protected from weeds and pests, meaning less weeding and healthier crops.
How to Fill a Raised Garden Bed
For best results, Greenspot raised beds should be filled in layers to create the optimal growing environment:
-
Start with a base layer of garden fabric (weed membrane) to prevent soil from washing out.
-
Add a drainage layer made of small branches or twigs – this should fill about half the height of the bed.
-
Next, add a layer of organic matter, such as grass clippings, partially decomposed compost, straw or manure.
-
Finish with a layer of high-quality fertile soil or compost.
This filling structure will provide excellent conditions for about 4–5 years.
After that, simply top up the upper layer when needed.
