Northlight Garden Bed Planter Box

This is an elevated planter box, meaning it has a solid base structure designed to sit on your patio, deck, or backyard surface. It is not open-bottomed, so it will not directly touch the ground soil.

The liner serves two purposes: it keeps your soil contained within the planter and acts as a protective barrier between the damp soil and the hemlock wood. This separation helps prevent the wood from rotting prematurely, extending the lifespan of the planter.

The planter is constructed from solid hemlock, which is naturally durable for outdoor use. However, like most untreated wood products, applying a weather-resistant sealant or stain annually will significantly improve its longevity against rain and sun exposure.

The design is straightforward and functional, typically requiring only basic tools. Most users find it can be assembled in under an hour by following the included instructions.

While this planter is excellent for herbs, flowers, and shallow-rooted vegetables like lettuce or spinach, it may not provide enough depth for larger root vegetables. Check the specific depth requirements of your plants to ensure they have enough room to thrive.
