Product Information
Full details
The Christow Circular Raised Garden Bed is ideal for home gardeners with limited space, such as those working with patios, decking, or smaller urban gardens, providing an efficient way to grow vegetables, herbs, and flowers. Its primary benefit is the combination of a raised design that prevents soil compaction and an open-base structure that ensures optimal drainage, though users should note that the unit requires assembly and does not include a floor, meaning it is intended for placement directly on soil or permeable surfaces.

FAQs
Does this bed have a bottom?
No, this is an open-base raised garden bed designed to allow roots to reach the soil below and ensure excellent drainage.
Can I use this on my concrete patio?
Yes, but it is recommended to place a piece of landscape fabric underneath to keep the soil inside the bed.
Is the rubber seal necessary?
The seal is optional; it provides a soft, rounded edge that makes it more comfortable when you are resting your arms on the rim while gardening.
What is the diameter and height of the unit?
The bed measures 90cm in diameter and 45cm in height.
Will the metal rust over time?
The bed features a powder-coated finish specifically designed to resist rust and corrosion for outdoor use.
Troubleshooting
The bed feels unstable after assembly
Check all galvanized fixings to ensure they are fully tightened and the panels are correctly aligned.
Soil leaking from the bottom
If placing on decking or a patio, place a layer of permeable landscape fabric at the base of the bed before adding soil.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Christow Circular Raised Garden Bed, ensure you are working on a level surface. Follow the provided manual to connect the panels using the included galvanized fixings; ensure all screws are tightened securely to maintain structural integrity.
If placing on a patio, consider using a porous landscaping fabric at the base to keep soil contained while still allowing water to drain. For care, simply wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth if it gets dirty. Because the finish is powder-coated, avoid using abrasive scrubbing pads that could scratch the surface and potentially expose the metal to moisture.
