The balcony. Municipal replacement garden

Yet for all its measured appearance, the table with its two shelves also opens up a pleasingly wide range of versatility: shelf or work table, presentation surface or side table - how it is to be used can be decided on a case-by-case basis.

Weight 13.6 kg.

All the possibilities of the time-honored raised bed - more intensive cultivation and more than one harvest per season thanks to the faster warming of the soil - also offers this bed box, the height of which allows you to work upright.

Height 93.5 cm, width 1.34 m, depth 67.5 cm. Volume 210 l. Weight 35 kg.

Stable and sturdy, this flower bench is made of painted steel and can hold numerous flower pots on three wide steps, and yet it can be folded and stored away to save space when not in use (in winter).

Made of steel, painted, material thickness 5 mm. Height 74 cm, width 99 cm, depth 55,5 cm (folded 4 cm). Steps 96 x 15,5 cm (bottom and middle) or 96 x 25,5 cm (top). Weight 18 kg.

Compactly built, this raised bed opens the possibility of achieving horticultural success even on a small balcony. It allows the cultivation of herbs, lettuce, zucchini, cucumbers or chard; it is not suitable for deep-rooted vegetables such as carrots. The tub of the raised bed is located at an optimal working and harvesting height. Its bottom slopes slightly towards the center so that excess water - for example, after a heavy downpour - can drain away easily, preventing waterlogging. Under the raised bed there is also sufficient storage space for empty pots, small tools, the watering can or the soil bag.
