Garden Planner

Arrange four growing beds around crossing garden paths. Move the shed, shift the beds or resize the path, then compare the space between the vegetable and herb beds.

Site element to edit

Four-bed potager garden

Drag an element or enter its centre position from the top-left plot corner. Elements stay within the plot.

Working space around the beds

Bed spacing: 1.87 m from vegetable to herb bed
Lawn footprint: 60.16 m²
Paved footprint: 17.04 m²

Each surface is measured separately. Where surfaces overlap, their areas count the shared patch in both readings.

Lay out a garden you can work in

Measure the route in

Measure your barrow at its widest point. Move one bed until the gap fits, then follow the route past the tree and around the end of the bed.

Place the beds within reach

Measure how far you can comfortably reach into a bed from the path. If only one side is accessible, reduce the bed depth and check what that does to the growing area.

Allow for the canopy

Enter the tree’s expected spread and look at the plan from above. Use your own observations of sun and shade when choosing where the beds go.

Garden Planner FAQ

Which two beds does the spacing measure?

The reading measures the shortest distance from the vegetable bed to the herb bed across the central path. Compare it with the width of your barrow, including its handles, and check the turn at the end of the beds.

Can I change the lawn without moving the plants?

Yes. Choose Lawn area and drag it or enter its new width and depth. Plants, raised beds and seating each have their own positions.

Does the tree show its mature spread?

Set the tree’s width and depth to the canopy spread you expect for your variety. The preview uses the size you enter and does not predict growth, sunlight or shade over time.

Can I draw an irregular garden boundary?

Open this layout in Studio and edit the lot outline or draw a new one with the Outdoor tools. The grass and paving stay separate from the indoor floor area.
