Introducing our new raised planter with trellis - the latest addition to our popular line of cedar garden beds and planters - made in the USA from durable, naturally rot-resistant cedar.

Grow anything from flowering vines and shrubs to vegetables and herbs in this cedar planter. With a narrow footprint, these cedar planter boxes with trellis work well along railings or to enclose an area on a deck or patio. The trellis structure and climbing plants provide an attractive focal point or backdrop, enhancing your outdoor area.

Choose your planter width and length to create either square or rectangle shapes to suit your space and needs. Planter boxes that are 22" in height come with a standard 48" trellis. Planter boxes that are 28" in height come with a 42" trellis.

Features & Benefits:

• Solid cedar construction: Unique tongue and groove assembly is strong and lightweight, superior to other wood trellises. Dadoed crosspieces fit together to form a tight grid, we have found stronger than traditional lattices.
• Vertical gardening: Train plants to grow vertically up the trellis, increasing your planting place in a small footprint.
• Privacy screen: Trellis creates a natural screen, combined with leafy vines, to provide privacy and enclose your outdoor space.
• Grow flowering vines: This sturdy trellis provides reliable support for heavy flowering vines, from delicate clematis to fragrant jasmine, which you can enjoy around outdoor seating areas.
• Elevated design & accessibility: The raised planter box and trellis brings plants to a comfortable working height, reducing excessive bending or kneeling, making gardening more comfortable.
• Made in the USA

Planters stand on 3 1/2-inch legs, so the bottom is lifted off the ground. This protects your deck or patio while making it easy to clean under the planter. As you can see in the photos, there is a bottom beam along the length of the planter, and no beam on either end, so there is a 5 1/2-inch space between the ground and planter on the ends.

The planter is high enough to reach without bending or kneeling from a seated position. The garden is easy to access while sitting positioned sideways next to the planter.

Durable Cedar

The raised garden planter with trellis is made from kiln-dried cedar. It is a fragrant wood with strong natural oils to protect against moisture and fungal decay. Cedar can be painted or stained, or left unfinished to gray naturally.

We offer Eco Wood Treatment as one option for a sealant. Eco Wood Treatment works by penetrating wood fibers to create a natural buffer against water and fungal decay. It increases wood's durability while creating an aged, silvery patina after just a few hours.

Set Up & Assembly

These planters can be set up on any hard surface that is flat and level, such as a patio, courtyard or balcony. For the planter portion, simply stack the boards and insert the stainless steel corner pins. Then attach the trim and planter bottom with included screws. A power screwdriver is recommended. Detailed assembly instructions and all necessary hardware are included.

For the trellis portion, assembly involves arranging the vertical and horizontal cross pieces on a flat surface, then gluing the notches and applying pressure to form a grid. Once the cross pieces are in place, the frame can be attached with included screws, again applying wood glue to the notches where the cross pieces join the frame. The final steps are attaching the trellis assembly to the planter box, along with the end braces.

We recommend letting the boards sit in a garage, shed or covered area for 3-5 days to allow the boards to acclimatize to their new environment. This helps to prevent any cupping, warping, and gapping.

Adding a layer of gravel to the bottom of the planter isn't necessary, as the slatted bottom provides good drainage. Optionally, line with landscape fabric to prevent fine soil from washing out.
