6x1 Timber Wooden Raised Planter Beds
Description
6x1 Timber Wooden Raised Planter Beds
Create a dedicated growing area with a timber raised planter bed made from 6x1 timber. These raised garden beds provide a simple way to divide growing areas, improve the appearance of a garden and create defined spaces for vegetables, herbs, flowers and other plants.
Choose from a selection of planter bed sizes and three different height options to suit the space available and the type of planting you have in mind. The frame is supplied ready for straightforward assembly, giving you a practical alternative to building a raised planter completely from individual lengths of timber.
A practical way to create a dedicated growing area
Raised planter beds are useful for much more than growing vegetables. They can be used to create organised planting areas, separate different crops and add structure to gardens, patios and other outdoor spaces.
Vegetable growing
Create defined growing areas for vegetables such as carrots, lettuce, onions, beetroot and other garden crops.
Herb gardens
Use a raised planter to create a dedicated herb garden close to the house, greenhouse or outdoor entertaining area.
Flowers and planting
Raised timber beds can also be used for flowers, ornamental planting and mixed planting schemes.
Defined garden areas
Create clear boundaries between planting areas, lawns, paths and other parts of the garden.
Different heights
Choose from three height options to create a planter that works with your available space and preferred growing arrangement.
Simple construction
The planter bed frame provides a straightforward starting point without having to construct the complete frame from separate timber lengths yourself.
Available sizes and heights
Every garden is different, which is why this raised planter range is available in a choice of dimensions and three height options. Select the size and height that best suits your available space and intended use using the options above.
Ideas for your wooden raised garden bed
Raised beds are particularly useful when you want to organise your planting rather than simply planting directly into an existing garden border.
Salad crops
Lettuce, rocket and other salad crops can work well in dedicated raised growing areas.
Root vegetables
Carrots, beetroot and other root crops can be grown in suitable prepared growing media.
Kitchen herbs
Create a convenient herb bed with individual sections for commonly used culinary herbs.
Strawberries
A dedicated raised bed can provide an organised area for strawberry plants and other low-growing fruit.
Flowers
Raised planters can be used for seasonal flowers and ornamental planting as well as edible crops.
Mixed planting
Combine flowers, herbs and vegetables to create a productive and attractive garden bed.
What should you put inside a raised planter bed?
The planter frame is designed to create the structure of the raised bed. You will need to provide the appropriate growing medium for whatever you intend to plant.
A typical raised bed may use a mixture of suitable topsoil, compost or other growing media depending on the plants being grown. Consider the drainage requirements of your chosen plants and make sure the finished planter is positioned on an appropriate surface.
The amount of material required will depend on the internal dimensions and height of the planter, so it is worth calculating the volume before ordering soil or compost.
Things to consider when choosing a timber raised planter
Measure the space
Check the available area before ordering, including the space needed around the planter for access and maintenance.
Think about access
Make sure you can comfortably reach the plants from the sides of the finished raised bed.
Consider drainage
Raised beds still require suitable drainage. Consider the surface underneath the planter and the requirements of the plants you intend to grow.
Choose the right height
The three available height options allow you to select a planter arrangement that works for your garden and planting requirements.
