Please help me choose which shape bed

I am having a raised bed built in the corner of my garden soon and I'm undecided on the shape. Which do you think is the best? It will be at the bottom of my garden, cornered by fence panels and made of brick. I've looked at so many beds I'm confused now. Any opinions would be helpful please!

I like no2 it has an open feel and makes the planting area bigger. Plus it’s a more interesting shape.

I agree, No 2. The first one has a corner bath feel about it.

no2. I think you would struggle to tend anything in the back corner of no1.

boymum9 · 08/07/2020 08:31

I like no 2 tooSmile

pandafunfactory · 08/07/2020 08:32

Yup number 2

Buffthemagic · 08/07/2020 08:32

Thanks all! I had a quote for no 1 but I was doubting my choice, now you've confirmed the idea for me I think Smile

Going against the grain I prefer no 1.
It could be the brick type/colour I prefer but I also like that shape better. It looks tidy.

mummaminnie · 08/07/2020 08:43

I prefer no. 2 as well. I think it draws the eye in more. You could maybe fit in some seating in front of it too.

Number 2. First one too small, anyway.

Another vote for no. 2. It's more interesting and accessible, and the walls would make sociable seating if you so desired Smile

Number 2 is a lovely shape 😊
