Acacia is a dense hardwood that holds its shape outdoors, and this rectangular planter box is built from it: 44 by 23 by 16 in overall, with 41 by 20 by 10 in of planting room inside and a rated load of 110 lbs when filled. Ten inches of soil depth covers most of what a border needs, from herbs and flowers to succulents, vegetables and small shrubs. When something wants to root deeper than that, the bottom panel lifts out entirely and the box sits open to the ground below, so taproots keep going instead of circling at a floor. Left in place, that same panel is what handles water. Its boards are set with deliberate gaps rather than butted tight, letting surplus water drain and air reach the underside of the root ball, and the included fabric liner sits between soil and wood to hold the fill in place while still passing water through. The wood itself resists the warping and splitting that untreated softwood develops after a wet season, and every surface is sanded before it ships, so lifting or repositioning a loaded box does not mean picking up splinters. The corners are rounded off as a finishing detail that also removes the sharp points a square box leaves at shin height. Bare acacia takes paint or stain readily for anyone wanting to match a color scheme, and the box suits balconies, patios, gardens and sun rooms equally. It weighs 31.5 lbs and ships flat for assembly.
