What is a wicking bed?
A wicking bed is a self-watering garden system where plants draw moisture from a water reservoir below, reducing watering needs by up to 70% while promoting healthier growth. Perfect for water-wise gardening!
Which fruit and veg grow in wicking gardens?
Nearly all common garden edibles thrive in wicking beds! Top performers include:
-
Vegetables: Tomatoes, lettuce, kale, spinach, carrots, beetroot, capsicum, eggplant, zucchini
-
Herbs: Basil, parsley, mint, coriander, thyme
-
Fruits: Strawberries, dwarf citrus (in larger beds), passionfruit (with creeper)
Avoid deep-rooted plants like standard fruit trees or large pumpkins. The consistent moisture makes wicking beds ideal for juicy, fast-growing crops – especially in NSW climate!
