You can landscape your garden with a variety of materials. But here we

- Mark your desired place of making beds by rope, hose or twine.
Rope or hose is better option, as it can be bend to mark the curves.
View the marked place from different angles like standing and seeing
in front of your garden, back of the garden, from the house, if
possible going out of the arena of the house. What we mean is in
every possible way.
- Then you need to examine the soil for the making of bed for which
the most suitable time is during late winter or early spring. The
best way is to dig a six-inch deep hole and you have to fill the
hole with water. If the water drains out quickly then it in sandy
soil and if it doesn't then it is clay soil, which is the best one.
- If the soil is sandy you need to reform it for which you have to
blend it with compost.
- Then the next step is to improve the quality of soil and also
feeding the creatures that are staying in the soil.
- You need to do tilling but not in heavy clay soil. It can make
the soil hard and it is quite possible that the oxygen particles are
lost.
- Nitrogen which is largely available in most of the fertilizers
and is very applicable for lettuce or sprinkling in the lawns but if
given an early stage when the flower\bud\fruit have still not
developed then it will stop producing fruit or flower. Only leaves
will continue to come up.
