Product description
Our largest linear bed can create a genuine urban vegetable allotment, in any hard-standing, with access available from only a single side!
The discrete, contemporary design of this portable urban garden is best placed along a wall or fence, and can complement any outdoor space with huge productivity – despite its compact size! The planter is fully self-watering using commercial-grade drip-irrigation, and comes with our own two-part filter drainage system (to prevent staining beneath). What’s more, we also include a sample of our own patented plant-training to organise your growing space, and maximise yields. New to gardening but keen to get stuck in? We’ve got you covered! We also include lifetime access to our crop database, soil preparation advice and range of beginners’ guidance!
Perfect for anyone wanting to enjoy the productivity of an allotment in their own backyard, and ideal for renters who don’t want to leave their garden behind!
Variations
Our raised allotment has been specifically designed to prevent back-strain, and is available in three heights to make gardening as ergonomic and comfortable as possible; after-all, you wouldn’t ride a bike that didn’t fit! All of our planters are also humidity and heat resistant, making them suitable for use in greenhouses and polytunnels; please get in touch for more information, or check out our example greenhouse kit in our product range! We also offer four container colours. Our bright and beautiful purple container can make a powerful statement, while our subtle texture patterns – Marble & Millstone – are better suited to more natural surroundings. Finally, our contemporary ‘Black’ container is discrete and classic – and (better still) is sustainable & eco-friendly - moulded entirely from recycled plastic re-grind!
Overview
Made in Britain
Personalisation available
Dimensions
The planter consists of four containers, and is the longest on the market at 278cm wide and 57cm deep. The standard working height is 72cm tall, but this can be adjusted to 62cm or 82cm for the short and long options, respectively. Unboxed and fully constructed, it weighs 41kg and can contain a volume of 500 litres of soil.
Made from
We wanted to break the mould of the UK garden sector, notorious for manufacturing throw-away products with a short lifespan, so we use only the highest quality materials, and hand-build each planter to order in our workshop (in Herefordshire)! Each container is rotationally moulded (to avoid plastic cracking & fracturing usually found with plastic products) from MDPE in Somerset – it’s the same grade of material used in UK clean-water pipes, meaning it’s totally non-reactive and food-safe. We also use twice-galvanised steel for the frame (with stainless steel set-screws) so it’ll never rust, aluminium training bars (to support crops) and even a brass ‘hoselock’ connector to join with your garden tap. Due to all this, we’re confident in offering a 10-year warranty on our entire range of raised planters and beds!
Easily set-up in minutes, the planter arrives part-built and requires only partial frame assembly (with a provided hex-key), irrigation priming and – finally - backfilling with soil! The planter is also easily dissembled and transported to a new space – making it ideal for rented accommodation.
The planters are designed to require minimum maintenance and are both UV and rust resistant, to keep them looking great year after year. To maintain a shine, the steel frame can benefit from occasional polishing with a simple spray of WD40. The planter is easy to use and provides a comfortable working reach of nearly 60cm (the ergonomic optimum), and also includes a lip to prevent soil spillage. We recommend brushing this off from time-to-time, to keep everything looking tidy!
