Raised vegetable planters are practical for grow your own enthusiasts and they can look impressive as part of a garden landscape. You do not have to have a dedicated vegetable patch to get started with grow your own vegetables. Raised vegetable planters can be used to grow potatoes, carrots, onions, shallots and garlic. You can also use raised vegetable planters to grow French beans, peppers, aubergine and tomatoes. You can also plant up a raised vegetable planter with culinary herbs and locate it close to the kitchen door so that you have a supply of fresh herbs available. In planning some raised bed planters I found on line some lovely Heritage manger raised vegetable planters at www.internetgardener.co.uk They will look superb with some mixed salad leaves like baby leaf spinach, ruby radicchio and lambs lettuce as well as beetroot and Swiss chard. The practical uses for raised vegetable beds is endless. I also fancy one of the manger raised vegetable beds planted up with annual bedding plants on my terrace this summer. Who said they are only for vegetables! © Copyright
