Maxi Manger Trough Planter - Getting the most from these Trough Style Wooden Planters isn't difficult and even though quality raised beds and planters are - pardon the pun - a huge growth area as gardeners realise the benefits of growing their own fruit and vegetables in waist height comfort with little or no maintenance and free from certain pests, we're still rather pleased with the stylish Maxi Manger Raised Planter we've both researched and designed.

Standing 79cm (2'7") off the ground, the Trough Style Raised Planter provides growing options that single level raised beds can't dream of offering - plant your salads and shallow rooting crops round the perimeter of the FSC approved, high pressure treated wooden trough and let the plants (including carrots and parsnips) which require extra depth really stretch their legs in the centre, where 45cm (17½") of soil is available. Manufactured from 2cm (¾") thick planed wood and carrying a 5 year structural guarantee, you can be sure the Maxi Manger Raised Planter won't let you down and your patio will be grateful for the thick, fitted, non-woven polypropylene fabric liner which aids water retention, contains fine sand and compost and helps prevent leaching.

We've even added a very cute, smaller version of the Manger Raised Bed Planters to our range - the Mini Raised Bed Planter, ideal for smaller patios or courtyards - but we're sure the 83cm (2'9") wide Maxi Manger Raised Planters will prove extremely popular, especially as they are available in four lengths - 0.6cm (2ft), 1.2m (4ft), 1.8m (6ft) 2.4m (8ft) - giving you ample opportunity to produce home grown vegetables in comfort!

Turn your Maxi Manger Raised Planter into the ultimate patio vegetable growing system with the new Hoops and Cover Kits - designed exclusively for the three longer Maxi Mangers (0.6m long manger excluded)!

New 0.6m (2ft) Long Maxi Manger available for 2012!

Transform your vegetable-laden raised beds into an efficient mini-greenhouse with the minimum of effort, prolong your growing season and even ventilate summer crops without compromising on crop protection with our Fitted Hoops and Mesh Vented PVC Covers double act - one that garden pests certainly won't find amusing!

The 19mm diameter galvanised tubular steel hoops fit securely inside our timber raised beds with supplied brackets and screws and give either 59cm (23") or 104cm (41") of growing height - the former for 60cm (2ft) wide beds and the greater size for 1.2m (4ft) beds and upwards.

Available in eight size options, the hoops firmly support the UV stabilised extra thick, heavy-duty PVC covers, complete with full-width insect-mesh ventilation for the summer months to keep pests out and let rain in.

The clear PVC traps heat and shields plants from the elements to extend the growing season and access couldn't be simpler thanks to the large-zipped, dual-skinned PVC/insect mesh panels that roll up and down on both sides. We've also got Fitted Butterfly Net and Insect Mesh Covers for complete raised bed crop protection but don't let your raised beds have all the fun; although designed for use in our beds and with both our Standard and Superior Raised Bed Tables, the Fitted Hoops and Mesh Vented PVC Covers are equally at home in open ground.

Current Available Cover Sizes: 0.6m x 2.4m (2ft x 8ft); 1.2m x 1.8m (4ft x 6ft): 1.2m x 2.4m (4ft x 8ft); 1.8m x 1.8m (6ft x 6ft) and 1.8m x 2.4m (6ft x 8ft)
