We live in a small town (village, actually) fairly large lot, and I purchased an adjoining piece of property......it has a garage on it that I wanted for boat storage, plus more 'garden space'.
this picture looks north, from one corner of our yard, along the street , the white building in the distance is the garage on the other property.these beds are all 8' wide, and vary in length from 16', to 70'....but most are 32' long.
then, at the 'corner', there are two more beds, this is the largest (8'X40')
this one has gotten longer.....somehow!....since this picture was taken...it grew from 4'X16', to 4'X24'
and I have a little space along the big veggie garden
there are a few more areas that have a 'few' iris, as well.
total bed space is about 2800 square feet....not counting the two beds I am presently constructing
