These types of beds are good for gardeners who need to work from a chair with their legs comfortably under the platform. The usual height for an elevated bed is thirty inches from the ground. Tables that are too high cause the arms to become quickly tired. Climbing plants reduce the need for bending and stooping and bring the vegetation into easy reach for those in wheelchairs. Look for fences, walls and other areas you can use for vertical gardening.
Some structures can provide places for hanging baskets as well.
Window boxes are ideal for gardeners who find going outdoors difficult. Plants can be directly planted in a soil filled box, or plants can be left in pots, then placed in a window box. Herbs and annuals are favorite window box plants. Care must be taken with window boxes to provide adequate drainage. Container gardens require more watering than regular gardens, and a sprinkler hose will make that job less troublesome.
