Introducing our new U-shape trellis raised bed - 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 raised bed. With various sizes to choose from, these raised beds with trellis work with almost any garden space! The trellis structure and climbing plants provide an attractive focal point or backdrop, enhancing your outdoor area.

Choose your raised bed width and length to create either square or rectangle shapes to suit your space and needs. Raised beds come with a standard 48" tall 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, which 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

Dimensions

The raised bed side boards are made from resawn cedar that's a full 1-inch thick and 5 1/2 inches high. Two boards stacked give the raised beds a height of 11 inches. Three boards stacked make a 16.5 inch raised bed, and four boards stacked make a 22 inch raised bed.

Each size comes with corner pins the same height as the bed you order, so you can put the raised bed on hard ground or a patio if needed, and the tops of the pins will be flush with the top of the bed.

Raised beds 6 feet and longer come with rust-proof steel crossbars, which prevent the longer beds from bowing under the weight of the soil.

Durable Cedar

Raised beds and trellises are 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

Raised beds assemble in minutes. Just level the ground, stack the boards, and insert the stainless steel corner pins to create a long lasting garden bed for your vegetables and flowers. 

No tools are required to assemble the basic raised beds. The finishing trim pieces attach with included screws, and a power screwdriver is recommended. Assembly instructions 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.
