Problem
Flower beds set flush with the ground force anyone tending them to bend low, and their edges blur easily into the rest of the outdoor surface around them.
Solution
Raise your flower beds to about waist height, so plants can be tended and smelled without stooping, and the beds themselves stand out as distinct elements that help shape the outdoor space.
