Establishing a cutting garden is an excellent way to ensure a continuous supply of fresh flowers for your home. By using GRÖNFELD raised beds, you can create a structured and attractive cutting garden that is easy to maintain.
Benefits of using GRÖNFELD raised beds:
Flexibility in design: GRÖNFELD offers raised beds in different materials such as black aluminium, corten steel (rusts), raw iron (rusts) and galvanised steel. This allows you to choose a design that suits the look of your garden.
Durability: The materials ensure a long service life and require minimal maintenance, which is ideal for a busy gardener.
Easy installation: The raised beds are designed for easy assembly without the need for special tools, so you can get started on planting quickly.
How to set up your cutting garden with GRÖNFELD raised beds:
Planning: Choose a sunny spot in the garden, as most cut flowers thrive best with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day.
Preparing the area: Remove weeds and level the ground where the raised bed is to be placed. This ensures a stable base and prevents unwanted growth inside the raised bed.
Assembly: Follow the enclosed instructions to assemble the raised bed. GRÖNFELD's design makes it possible to assemble the beds without special tools.
Soil preparation: Fill the raised bed with a nutrient-rich soil mix suitable for growing flowers. Consider adding compost to improve the fertility of the soil.
Planting: Choose flower varieties that are suitable for cutting, such as roses, tulips, lilies and dahlias. Plant them according to their specific needs and make sure there is suitable spacing between the plants to promote healthy growth.
Maintenance: Make sure to water regularly, feed the plants and remove faded flowers to stimulate continuous blooming.
By following these steps and using GRÖNFELD raised beds, you can create a beautiful and productive cutting garden that will enrich your home with fresh flowers throughout the season.
