Superior Wooden Raised Beds from Harrod Horticultural New

Made from top quality slow grown dense timber containing a greater proportion of the hardier late growth than faster-grown timber. Not to be confused with the less dense wooden planks supplied in cheaper raised bed kits supplied by some of our competitors. This slow-grown timber has a much tighter grain (as shown below) which provides greater strength.

The superior wooden raised beds use quality 20cm/8" high by 3.5cm/1.4" thick scandinavian planks, sourced from sustainably managed forests which are planed all round for a quality finish. The timber is kiln dried and selected to a structural standard to ensure high quality. The 10cm/4" square corner posts give extra strength and can link additional raised bed kits or parts together. All the wood is high pressure treated with a safe wood preserve - after consultation with Garden Organic - to ensure the best possible resistance to fungal decay and wood boring insects. 

These stunning wooden raised beds, ideal for growing your own vegetables are supplied as complete kits including thick planks, corner posts, long lasting aluminium corner brackets, stainless steel screws and full instructions. Optional Capping (5cm/2" H x 10cm/4"W) is also available and provides a wide comfy seat for working and gives the top of the beds a stylish finish. 

Available in 4 heights - from 20cm/8" to 81cm/32" deep - and 10 sizes, these superb raised vegetable beds should perfectly meet your needs.

Please note that as timber is a natural product and is susceptible to shrinkage/swelling, all sizes are therefore nominal +/- 5mm. Sizes apply to external dimensions.
