How to use this plan

Mark out your bed and set plants out (still in pots) using the spacing column.
Place taller and wider plants to the back or centre, lower plants to the front or edges.
Group by light and water needs so each plant gets the right conditions.
Plant, mulch, water in well — then tick each plant off as you go.
