Can sweet peas, strawberries, raspberries and cucumbers all be planted together in one flowerbed?

No, I would plant all but the cucumbers together. You will have cucumbers climbing up your plants. They have very long vines and need room to spread out. They may smother your other plants.

Depends on how big the bed is. You will definitely have to watch the cucumbers and their vines, they do not have deep roots, but if you do not have them climbing they may strangle your other plants.


Word of caution: the strawberries will spread like you cannot imagine! By next year they can quadruple!
Reply:i have no idea but you could try............
Reply:Just remember the strawberries and the raspberries are perrinials, and both will spread out quite a bit. If I were you I would give these plenty of room.
Reply:Yes, but watch out for the cucumbers, they really spread.
