Harry, Our veggie bed runs east-west deliberately, to catch the maximum amount of sun everywhere. It backs up on my long white house,south side. It gets full sun for about 6 or 7 hours a day. Tall plants or trellised climbing vines are placed at the rear. Penny, NY ___________________________________________________________________ Get the Internet just the way you want it.
