Latchmere Raised Planter

Perfect for small gardens where space is at a premium, the Latchmere Raised Planter can house fresh herbs, salad and fruit ready to supplement your culinary creations. Its dipped and stained pine in a dark grey colouring offers a stylish alternative to plain wood or metal planters, whilst the height of the unit also makes it super easy to tend to your plants. Featuring a lower shelf which gives you an area to accommodate grow bags, plant pots and gardening accessories, the Latchmere Planter is an ideal item if you're partial to growing your own produce. Hardy and highly suitable for withstanding outdoor conditions, it will look charming in a courtyard or patio, plus - if you’re looking to extend your planting collection in the same theme - it’s also ideal for pairing with the Latchmere Trough, which comes in two sizes.
