Stanford Dingley, BerkshireThe existing cottage garden was relatively high maintenance. The client wanted to change an overgrown herbaceous border into an area requiring little maintenance. A gravel garden was created incorporating a millstone water feature and rustic sleeper bench. Drought tolerant planting includes cistus, thymes, sedums and grasses.

I'd like to install a raised bed for vegetable gardening this year. I think this will allow me more control over the soil quality. What's the cheapest and easiest way to go about it? Should I buy one of the ready-made beds available online?
In case I wasn't clear, the soil is not my concern, it's the actual bed itself. Should I try to build one, or buy one that snaps together?
If you can avoid it dont buy a bed, they are not worth the expence.
the bed i have my cacti in is just a square of concrete blocks.
