Re: Gardens - raised beds


My 'planters' are made from old railway sleepers piled on top of each other.
We had them just before the safety directive wich forbids old wood with creosote etc, but you can still get sleepers treated with other things.
The creosote still 'bleeds' out on very hot days. Actually I love the smell!

Re: Gardens - raised beds


Here's a link for a plastic product which makes raised beds (and other items/features)
www.link-a-bord.com
Haven't used it so can't pass an opinion - just happened to see it in a garden maggie.

Re: Gardens - raised beds


At our old house we had a raised flowerbed. It was built up with stone. It was lovely, had roses around the edging and then little primroses in the grass area
