A square section cleared of weeds is plowed, and a circle is drawn in the center of it. Then in the middle they throw earth, forming paths at the same time. The space remaining behind the circle is divided into 8 identical parts, and paths made of gravel and tile are laid between the beds. To prevent the germination of weeds, geotextiles are placed under the gravel. A fence made of stones or broken bricks will brightly emphasize the unique French beautiful beds. After registration, they can be covered with compost or just level the ground and begin planting.
