How Do Birdies Garden Beds Perform in Hot or Cold Climates?Updated 10 days ago

Do Birdies Beds Work Well in Hot Regions?

Yes! Birdies beds were developed in Australia and have been used successfully in extremely warm climates for over 13 years. Here’s why they perform so well in the heat:

  1. Minimal Heat Transfer:
    The metal used in Birdies beds is strong but thin, preventing heat from easily transferring into the soil. When combined with mulch, the bulk of the soil stays cool.

  2. Superior Reflectivity:
    The material of Birdies beds reflects most of the heat, preventing it from reaching the soil. This makes Birdies beds more effective at maintaining even, cool soil temperatures compared to wooden, concrete, or plastic beds, especially those made from darker materials.

Here's a video where Kevin discusses heat while assembling the 6-in-1 of our beds for a little more info:





How Do Birdies Beds Handle Freezing Cold?

Birdies beds are also extremely durable in cold climates. Customers in Canada have successfully used these beds for multiple years without any issues related to the freeze/thaw cycle or general wear and tear.
