Extra Deep Raised Wooden Decking Planter - 60cm High Pressure Treated Garden Planter Box

Here is a raised wooden decking planter for those who want a proper depth for roots and a bit of height to spare their backs. It suits anyone with a patio, a patch of decking, or a corner that needs filling, and it is deep enough for vegetables, herbs, or anything that likes a good run at the soil.

The planter arrives with its legs tucked inside, so you will need to fit them yourself, but there is no great trick to it: each side is numbered, the holes are pre-drilled, and the screws are included. Once assembled, the raised design means you can tend to your plants without stooping, which is a mercy if you are planting out salad or keeping up with the deadheading. The extra depth—60cm high and 60cm deep—gives roots room to spread, which makes all the difference for crops that resent being cramped.

Drainage holes are already in place, and a liner is supplied to keep the soil where it belongs and help with water flow. The boards are pressure treated, so you need not worry about rot setting in after a wet winter, though you may add your own finish if you want to change the colour or give it another layer of protection. In our experience, a planter that is well looked after—emptied and brushed out at the end of the season, legs checked for wobble, and kept off bare earth—will last for many years without fuss.

There is no need to replace what lasts, and this is a planter meant to see you through many springs.
