Just moved into our new place, and planning a garden layout for next year. Plan is to take apart the cinder block compost and use the blocks for 2-3 vertical raised beds.

Would like to include corn and sunflowers, but unsure of which way to have them facing so they don't shade my little herb garden. (next to the shed)

I have attached a picture (taken approx 10:30AM), and would appreciate any feedback from you expert gardeners!!!
