garden bed

Soil for plants

A garden bed is a defined section of ground prepared for planting, typically raised or bordered to separate it from surrounding lawn or pathways.

Garden beds concentrate soil amendments and make weeding easier: She planted tomatoes in the raised garden bed.

The term distinguishes cultivated planting areas from containers or general landscaping.
