Big planters, no big project. Delivered fully assembled.

The 3ft and 4ft sizes give shrubs, grasses and show-piece displays a proper root run, and they arrive as finished planters, not a weekend of screws.

Hand-built in our Kent workshop from solid Northern European softwood.

Free UK delivery, and every planter arrives fully assembled. Add compost and plant the same day.

Timbac edible-safe finish, 2-year full guarantee, 90-day free returns.

The full story.

A large wooden planter solves the problem a cluster of pots never quite does: one generous, continuous run of soil that anchors a space. Enough root room for proper planting: a full herb bed, a screen of colour, a row of veg. And enough visual weight that it looks intentional rather than scattered.

The catch with big planters is that everything wrong with a cheap one gets bigger too. More thin timber to wick water. More flat-pack panels to wrestle. More weight sitting on a base that rots first. Ours are built the opposite way: made by hand in our Kent workshop from solid timber, constructed so water drains away from the joints, and delivered fully assembled, which matters most at this size, because nobody wants to build a 4-foot planter from a diagram.

Our largest planters run to 4ft (1.16m): the Sussex raised bed in tan or black for depth and growing, and the Hastings trough in black for long, narrow runs. All are safe to grow food in, with no plastic liner and no leaching, and covered by our 2-year full guarantee, with 90-day free returns.

Part of the full wooden planters range, delivered fully assembled across mainland UK.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Got questions? We've got answers. If we missed yours, just drop us a line.

How big do your planters go?

The Sussex raised bed runs up to 4ft long in Tan or Black, and the Hastings black trough runs up to 4ft too. That is enough for a statement display, a screen of grasses or a serious crop of salads.

What should I plant in a large planter?

Compact shrubs, lavender hedging, ornamental grasses, dahlias and mixed seasonal displays all suit the bigger sizes. For food growers, a 4ft bed is a small allotment in a box.

How heavy is a large planter once filled?

Heavy. The planter itself arrives light enough for one or two people to place, but once filled with wet compost a 4ft planter is not something you slide around. Position it first, then fill it.

Can a large planter stay outside all winter?

Yes, that is what it is built for. Solid Northern European softwood, a Timbac finish formulated to slow water absorption, and a 2-year full guarantee that covers manufacturing defects and anti-rot.

Do large planters arrive assembled too?

Yes. Every size, including the 4ft, is delivered as a finished planter. No flat-pack, no bag of screws, no instructions to lose.

Is the finish safe for pets and children?

Yes. Timbac is our own non-toxic, water-and-wax-based treatment, safe around pets, children, soil and edibles from the day the planter arrives.

Can I grow food in the large sizes?

Absolutely. The 4ft Sussex raised bed is the best veg growing space we make. Salads, beans, beetroot, chard and strawberries all fit comfortably.

How quickly will a large planter arrive?

Order before 12 noon and we dispatch the same day from our Kent workshop, with delivery in 2 to 3 working days. UK delivery is free, large items included.

What if it is too big for the space?

You have 90-day free returns, and that includes large items. If it overwhelms the spot, you get a full refund.
