Here is how tall planter boxes or raised garden beds can help improve your gardening game.
Protect Your Plants from Pests
A tall garden planter will help keep slugs, rabbits, dogs, and other pests away from your plants.
Comfortable Gardening
Planter boxes that are at least knee height or taller will make gardening a much more enjoyable experience without back pain. We recommend a minimum planter height of 18 inches, depending on your height and design purpose.
Design Flexibility
Planter boxes with a solid bottom allow you to plant on various surfaces such as concrete and decks. A solid bottom prevents soil from spilling out and helps protect the surface below.
Create Your Perfect Soil
With raised garden beds you can create a perfect soil mixture without relying on the native soils below. You can put some rocks on the bottom as a drainage layer. You can also add organic materials, such as logs, to help fill up the box economically.
Fewer Weeds
Planter boxes help keep weeds away, especially weeds that creep on the ground. If your planter box is tall enough, weeding will be an easy task because you can do it while you stand. You can easily add some mulch to the top to keep weeds out.
Looks Beautiful
Raised beds and planter boxes look more beautiful than just dirt on the ground. Planter boxes come in different shapes, colours, sizes, and materials. Be sure to do your research and only invest in durable planter boxes which will look amazing for many years.
Portable
Planter boxes with solid bottoms are portable. You can lift large and heavy planter boxes with a tractor or forklift. Smaller planters are easily movable without machinery.
No Soil Erosion
Raised garden beds help keep the soil contained and prevent erosion. You also do not need to dig or disturb the ground below. Some digging may be required to create a level surface.
Wheelchair Accessible
People with wheelchairs or disabilities can also enjoy gardening with planter boxes. The planter box must be at a comfortable height.
Flood Protection
If you live in a flood-prone area, tall planter boxes can help keep your plants safe.
Create Privacy
Tall planter boxes can help create a unique, beautiful, and secure privacy screen. Tall planters are great for creating privacy around hot tubs, restaurant patios, and sundecks.
