The Timberlane Gardens 2-tier Vertical Cedar Ladder Planter gives you dependable growing space in a compact footprint. Designed for patios, balconies, porches, and small outdoor areas, this planter provides two levels of planting space while taking up minimal room when placed against a wall, fence, or the side of a structure.
Compact vertical planting for small spaces
- Ideal for patios, balconies, townhomes, and smaller outdoor areas
- Two stacked planting tiers maximize growing space in a narrow footprint
- Designed to lean securely against a wall, fence, shed, or the side of a house
- Keeps herbs and flowers at a convenient height for watering and harvesting
Handcrafted Select Cedar construction
- Frame is built from Select Cedar, naturally rot resistant and suitable for edible plants
- Box frames use dowel-pin joinery and mortise-and-tenon construction for strength without metal fasteners
- Boards are left untreated with no chemical coatings so plants grow cleanly
- Each piece is hand cut and fit-tested for a solid, wobble-free assembly
- Made by Timberlane Gardens in Homer Glen, Illinois
Removable planter box inserts
- Includes three standard 17-inch plastic flower-box inserts β two for the planter plus one spare
- Soil sits inside the inserts instead of directly against the wood, which helps prevent rot and extends the life of the cedar frame
- Inserts can be filled at a table or potting bench, then dropped into the frame when ready
- Easy to empty and clean between seasons, making replanting simpler and less messy
- The spare insert can be used to start new seedlings so the planter never has an empty tier
- Replacement inserts are standard sizes that are readily available from online retailers such as Amazon if you ever need extras
Easy, tool-free assembly
- Planter assembles in minutes with no tools required
- Cedar components slide and lock together using the built-in joinery
- Lightweight for setup but sturdy once positioned
- Stands approximately 48 inches tall, leaning at about 46 inches when placed against a wall or fence
