    One foot is equal to 12 inches. To be 12 inches apart, the first of parallel sides should each have 13. These would up to 26 flowers.

    The second pair of parallel will each have 11 flowers which would add up to 22 flowers. This will make the total number of flowers outside the bed equal to 48.

    Answer: 48 flowers
