  • Angled raised bed

    Wilko Angled Raised Bed at wilko.com

    Good idea but....................
    From the reviews the angle is too steep for soil or watering. Maybe better if it were set up the other way round, with the short side upright - so that the incline is less steep?
    I know what I mean

    It looks more like something you'd throw balls at.

      Or rolled up socks, see if you can throw two that match into the same pocket

        As too the socks does that mean you have two the same?

          I can imagine the whole thing collapsing in a heap if it was filled with wet compost, but maybe I'm being cynical.

              I imagine they'll be selling them off at the end of the season £3, that's my offer - just to try it for a laugh

                But it does give a good idea to be built out of sturdy timber...

                    The photos are ridiculous. Those plants have never grown in those pockets: somebody has just shoved a load of potting compost in while the pouches were on the flat and then stuffed the plants in. Impossible to water.

                      In one photo, you can see the plant at the top, is still in its pot
                      Maybe its a pot holder?

                        Well I think it's a nice idea and at £12 you can't complain.
                        Some one commented about a game, could be useful for the kids.
                        Also if you make your own you could have a variable angle.
                        Anyone got one , pictures etc ?
